Los Angeles Lakers: Larry Nance Jr. stresses importance of Lonzo Ball

Geared with an outstanding court vision and preternatural passing ability, it’s no secret that Los Angeles Lakers rookie point guard Lonzo Ball makes the game entertaining. Whether that was the UCLA team he led to a 31-5 record, or the Lakers summer league squad he powered to a championship while also earning MVP honors last year and now, the Lakers.

While the Lakers currently sit well below .500 this season (19-30), there is no denying that when Ball is playing, the team’s offense runs smoothly and quickly. In fact, the team leads the league in pace at 100.
