On Friday evening, the Iowa Hawkeyes and Connecticut Huskies played their Final Four matchup in Cleveland, Ohio.

The game was extremely close, but Iowa was able to win by a score of 71-69.

They will now face off against South Carolina for the 2024 Women's National Championship on Sunday.

Despite the exciting game, there was a controversial call when UConn was assessed an offensive foul with less than five seconds left (and Iowa up one).

Many people on social media shared their reactions, and one person who sent out a post was four-time NBA Champion LeBron James.

His post had over 35,000 likes in less than 30 minutes.

James wrote: "NAAAAAHHHHHH!!! I ain’t rolling with that call."

Caitlin Clark led the way for Iowa with 21 points, nine rebounds, seven assists and two steals.

Meanwhile, Paige Bueckers put up 17 points, four rebounds and three assists for UConn.

As for James, he has played in a lot of big games, so his opinion on the foul is noteworthy.

He is currently in the middle of another sensational season with averages of 25.4 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.1 assists and 1.2 steals per contest while shooting 53.6% from the field and 41.6% from the three-point range in 67 games.

The Lakers are the ninth seed in the Western Conference with a 44-33 record in 77 games.

They have gone 8-2 over their last ten games and are also in the middle of a three-game winning streak.
