Watch: LeBron James chases down Tyler Herro and blocks his dunk attempt

The Los Angeles Lakers lost again on Monday night to the Miami Heat, 108-107, but they mounted a strong comeback in the fourth quarter to give themselves a chance.

After losing Anthony Davis to hip spasms and D’Angelo Russell to an ejection after being assessed two technical fouls, the team fought back from a sizable deficit. It trailed by as many as 13 points, but it pecked away at that deficit as the fourth quarter progressed.

Just before the midway point of the period, Heat guard Tyler Herro stole the ball and appeared to have a breakaway bucket. But LeBron James furiously sprinted back and blocked his dunk attempt.

James has been known for such blocked shots over the years, and this was one of several highlights for him on Monday as he returned to the arena he called home a decade ago as a member of the Heat.
