Los Angeles Lakers superstar, LeBron James was spotted spying on the Memphis Grizzlies during Game 1 of their playoff series.

The Lakers pulled off a comfortable 128-112 win, with role players thriving against the No. 2 seed.

The 38-year-old had a quiet but productive game, finishing with 21 points, 11 rebounds, and five assists in his 267th playoff game.

James eavesdrops on Brooks

In the second quarter, Brooks was called over by Grizzlies coach, Taylor Jenkins who wanted to pass a message. As he strode towards Jenkins, James hilariously followed him.

As Brooks leaned in to hear what his coach was saying, the scoring king did the same.

It is common for opposing players to sneak into the opponent's huddles. Lance Stephenson famously did the same when his Indiana Pacers faced James's Miami Heat in the playoffs in 2014.

The Grizzlies' defeat was overshadowed by a hand injury to franchise player, Ja Morant. It is unclear if the point guard will return in Game 2 on Wednesday night.

Sports Brief earlier reported on Brooks saying he is looking forward to playing against James, saying it will be a good test for his team.
