LeBron James is treating his appearance on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" season premiere like a fast break.
"I'm going to just wing it," the Cavaliers All-Star forward said Thursday during a rehearsal break.
James is practicing this week with his new teammates at "SNL," where he'll become the latest superstar to host the show.
The 22-year-old's humorous Nike ads, in which he plays four versions of himself, and his co-hosting performance at the ESPYs made Lorne Michaels believe James would do well on the show.
"You can tell when someone has a sense of humor or a least enough perspective on themselves to able to laugh at stuff," said Michaels, the show's creator and executive producer.
James got his lines Wednesday and did a read-through Thursday, leading Michaels to believe "The Chosen One" might have another natural gift.
"He's really good at this stuff," Michaels said.
