In the episode, LeBron James and Zhuri take on a 300-point trick-shot challenge presented by Phineas and Ferb within a highly stylised animated setting.
The sequence features floating trampolines and flying sharks as the pair attempt to complete the exaggerated shot.
Zhuri ultimately converts the 300-point attempt, sealing the challenge in the short. When asked to do a 3000-point trick shot, LeBron asks the brothers to animate Luka Doncic instead.
The episode is available on Disney+, Disney Channel, and Disney Channel Animation’s official YouTube channels.
Another off-court moment for 41-year-old Lakers leader
The appearance adds to James’ previous ventures into animation, including his starring role in the 2021 film Space Jam: A New Legacy.
The 41-year-old continues to balance entertainment projects with on-court production during his NBA career.
James is averaging 22.0 points, 7.1 assists, and 5.8 rebounds per game this season, with the Lakers holding a 33-21 record and sitting sixth in the Western Conference.
While his primary focus remains on leading Los Angeles during the campaign, the cameo alongside his daughter provides another notable off-court highlight.
