LeBron James First Pro Game (and Getting Dunked on By Britton Johnsen)

LeBron's first pro game in the Pepsi Summer League in Orlando, July 8, 2003.

Johnsen's dunk is at 0:57.

This play was mentioned frequently during LeBron's first year, but the video has not previously been online. Britton Johnsen(?!)... that wouldn't fly today.
