It might be the preseason for most NBA players, but it seems like LeBron James is in midseason form.

The Cleveland Cavaliers superstar wasted no time to show he's still a pass-first player, pulling off this ridiculous move early in the Cavs preseason opener Wednesday against the Magic.

A little more than a minute into the game, LeBron spun off his defender and appeared to be trapped on the baseline by a second defender. James left his feet and just before he stepped out of bounds, he whipped a cross-court, double-clutch pass to Iman Shumpert, who promptly knocked down the open trey.

Yeah, LeBron is ready for the real season to start.
