After the frustrating defeat against the Boston Celtics, neither the fans nor the Los Angeles Lakers star let the moment pass. The Lakers star LeBron James surprised everyone with his animated expression after the referees missed out on an evident foul call in the Saturday night game. Patrick Beverley even stepped up to confront the officials with proof in his hand, but it went in vain. However, Pat Bev recently revealed the locker room interaction with James post the Celtics’ loss. Reacting to it, fans flooded the Twitter comments with various reactions.

During the Saturday night game, with the points tied and less than four seconds left in the game, James ran down the lane against three Celtics’ defenses for a layup. But Jayson Tatum’s hand collided with James’ hand in the attempt. However, the referees failed to call the foul, and the Lakers eventually lost the game 125-121 in overtime. The disappointing loss affected the stars and fans, especially the 6’1 point guard.
