Los Angeles Lakers rookie point guard Lonzo Ball is used to dealing with pressure. Whether it was in his backyard as a child when his dad LaVar was training him, at Chino Hills High School trying to win a state championship, or at UCLA, where he tried to get the Bruins to their first Final Four since 2008.
As one of the best players at every level he’s played, the pressure has always fallen on Ball when his team loses, and the same thing rings true now with the Lakers despite him being the youngest player on the team.
