Official Lonzo Ball Rookie Thread No. 1

We were lucky enough to keep our pick again, we sweated bullets, bit our nails and had plenty of sleepless nights thinking if we were going to keep or loose the pick in this years draft, something we could not afford to do for the sake of Lakers fans and the franchise. I know you will make us proud as a Laker. This is where you wanted to be, this is the uniform you wanted to wear, this is the city you wanted to represent, this is your home town, make LA proud Lonzo :basketball:

All the noise and the FO played as expected. I would have been fine with Ball, Jackson or even trading down but overall happy with Ball joining the team.

I hope we do NOT trade for PG.

Ruthless lol

I don't have an opinion on the pick, but would it kill him to get a box cut?

Then he'd be my next favorite player.

Never was at UCLA. Expect the same in the NBA.
