Which player did LeBron James block late in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals?

LeBron James blocked Andre Iguodala late in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals.

The play, later known simply as “The Block,” occurred with less than two minutes remaining as Iguodala drove toward the basket for Golden State. James chased him down from behind and swatted away the layup attempt, preserving an 89–89 tie. The sequence became one of the defining defensive plays in NBA history.

Cleveland went on to win the game 93–89, claiming the franchise’s first NBA championship. The Cavaliers also became the first team to overcome a 3–1 deficit in the Finals, and the first visiting team since 1978 to win a Finals Game 7 on the road.

The play is sometimes confused with James’s chase-down blocks in other playoff series, but this particular moment involved Iguodala at Oracle Arena on June 19, 2016. Kyrie Irving’s late three-pointer followed soon afterward and helped seal the title.
