LeBron James' six dunks in a game against the Houston Rockets helped the Los Angeles Lakers extend their winning streak to a season-best-matching seven games. Despite feeling unwell, James insisted he felt good and helped the team win. According to ESPN Research, James hadn't had that many dunks since March 9, 2017. He became the first Laker to score at least 30 points on 90% shooting from the floor since Shaquille O'Neal in March 2003.
