"He lost his heart"... Donte Divinsenzo spoke to LeBron James moment vs. La Lakers
SHARE

Donte Divinsenzo had a dramatic end to the Minnesota Timberwolves game.

As Donte Divincenzo looks back at Game 4 of the series with La Lakers, the Minnesota Timberwolves star looks back at the fourth quarter that was a chaotic.

And from an individual perspective, he might think that teammates Naz Reid and Anthony Edwards bailed him out by closing the NBA playoff game.

With 2:11 left, Dontedi Vincenzo headed for the rims, earning a layup and a foul. It was a crucial moment.

However, then at 1:37, Divincenzo was returned to the well again and was forced to pay.

Donte Divinsenzo’s attempt to lay up was relentlessly blocked as LeBron James leapt through the rims to keep him out of his attempts.

The 2016 NBA Finals were the best ever NBA Finals, and quickly connected to Andrei Ghdara’s LeBron James block.

Former Cavaliers teammate Richard Jefferson appeared in commentary on the Lakers’ game, saying, “It’s ‘It brings back some special, special memories.”

It turned into a potentially important play, with the Lakers heading straight to the other side of the court, with Louis Hachimura scoring three goals to retake the lead.

Former star Kendrick Perkins called the Timberwolves star because of lack of recognition.

He writes to X:

Donte lost his heart. In hell he thought it was safe because the layup attempt was protecting him.

Thankfully, the Timberwolves star has become a footnote to the game, not the crucial moment it appeared.

Minnesota closed out a 116-113 victory and took the series’ lead.

The story quickly switched as the Minnesota Timberwolves won the game.

LeBron James scored 27 points, but none of his points came in the fourth quarter. There was a clear reason for this.

JJ Reddick has made a marked decision to play the same five players throughout the second half, with the Lakers ahead of 32-19 in fourth, and Magic Johnson queried.

Perkins exaggerated a bit and exploded. “JJ!!! The rookie mistakes by Bron and Luka were exhausted… You have to find time to get them some rest.

Rookie mistake by JJ!!! Bron and Luka were tired… You have to find time to get them some rest. In particular, LeBron James, 40, is in his 100th season.
