When the media talks about some of the best point guards in the NBA, both LaMelo Ball and Tyrese Haliburton's names come up. However, since last season, many outlets had ranked Ball behind Haliburton with good reason. The Charlotte Hornets' point guard had been off the court dealing with ankle injuries over the course of the last couple of seasons, which had potentially led to some forgetting about the level of talent he possesses.
Both players were selected in the first round of the 2020 NBA Draft and have been their respectable team's best players. However on Friday night, Ball finally showed to the world that him and Haliburton are not on the same level nor in the same conversation.
