LeBron James invokes 'viral plane lady' to tout 40-point performance in Lakers win

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James invoked "viral plane lady" Tiffany Gomas to tout his incredible performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

LeBron James was feeling himself on Sunday after he scored 40 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 129-120 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Lakers superstar posted a video of Tiffany Gomas, the woman known as the "viral plane lady" or "crazy plane lady," in the midst of her famous rant from earlier this year. As she shouts, "this motherf---er back there is not real," Gomas points to a photo of James in the plane aisle.

"To know I can go out and still make game-winning plays, can affect the game in multiple ways and can still close out a game in the fourth quarter when our team needed when they started making a run is always a good feeling for sure," James said.

The Lakers themselves shot 52.2% from the field. Anthony Davis added 26 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists. Rui Hachimura scored 21 points.

"Everyone was making shots and everybody was passing the ball," James added. "We were trying to keep it on time, on target and not turn the ball over. That was the key to it."
