Lakers Media Day: Lonzo Ball Doesn’t Believe Jump Shot Has Changed All That Much

No player on the Los Angeles Lakers roster had more attention on him last year than Lonzo Ball. Even though he had a solid rookie season, showing off outstanding passing and rebounding along with impressive defense, the focus was almost entirely on his offensive struggles.

In particular, Ball’s jumper was the subject of a lot of scrutiny. He shot just 36 percent from the field and only 30.5 percent from three-point range leading many to criticize his unique shooting form.

Videos released during the offseason showed that Ball had altered his shooting stroke. However, the young point guard doesn’t believe there is much of a difference.
