The Los Angeles Lakers have finalized a workout date with top prospect Lonzo Ball out of UCLA. Ball will meet and work out for the Lakers on June 9, reports Shams Charania of The Vertical.
Ball, widely projected as the No. 2 pick heading to the Lakers, is the first elite prospect the Lakers have lined a workout up with. There’s a chance they meet with other players in the mix with the second overall pick prior to next Friday, but there’s yet to be any noise on that front.
The Lakers are expected to host point guard De’Aaron Fox out of Kentucky for a workout some time in June, but that’s to be expected as they sort through the top of the draft.
