Following the conclusion of the 2018 NBA Draft on Thursday, Lonzo Ball is no longer a rookie. Now heading into this second season with the Los Angeles Lakers, Ball is using every advantage he can to make a bigger impact next season.
In his post-draft interview with the media on Thursday, general manager Rob Pelinka talked about the work he’s seen Ball put in this offseason, which apparently has included weekly film sessions with team president Magic Johnson (via Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN):
“He came to Magic and said ‘I’d like to start watching film with you once a week, just to learn, and so Magic, and myself, and Lonzo have been in our incredible film room once a week for an hour doing sessions.
