LeBron James Believes Lonzo Ball Starting To Realize ‘How Great He Is’

Lonzo Ball was selected with the No. 2 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft to be the point guard of the future and so far, he has produced mixed results.

After a solid but unspectacular rookie season with the Los Angeles Lakers, Ball was forced to sit out most of the offseason as he dealt with a knee injury. However, the 21-year-old has played every game up this point of the 2018-2019 NBA season and looks to finally be getting into basketball shape.

Ball is widely known as a pass-first guard who likes to rebound and outlet the ball up court.
