LaMelo Ball, the 19-year-old Charlotte Hornets point guard from Chino Hills, flashed the skill against the Lakers on Thursday night at Staples Center that has many considering him the front-runner for rookie of the year.
Strong drives to the basket. A pull-up, one-legged fadeaway jumper for a basket over LeBron James. Nifty passes across the court. A key three-pointer that cut Charlotte's deficit to one point, 86-85, with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter during his outstanding play in the second half.
