What is with the Ball family's stroke. it's like they all modelled it after Nash only weirder.

He just looks like a skinny chucker with no athleticism. He ain’t ready.

He ain't going #1. But with his obvious dad baggage, I think he might slide and get picked lower than he should.

Pretty much, tells you how weak the draft is looking. Not even sure how that video made so much buzz. He just chucks the 3 with a terrible form over and over.

yet he doenst play in europe so how could he stay here? Plus people who actually know stuff about scouting and actual scouts have him as a top pick and there even looking at shoe deals already, looks like a bum to me.

get your head out of your ass before saying something so dumb.

lamelo get off realgm. you're a garbage player and apart of a toxic family. No NBA team wants apart of that. :crazy:

then every draft prospect next year is a garbage player or are all scouts, like me, are "lamelo himself" for having him so high? i know its hard for you to think with your head in ur ass, thinking australia is in europe i feel sorry for you

He was considered the most gifted offensive player of the three brothers. He is also the tallest, I think.

He looked a bit goofy but that was him filling into his growing body. When he played against the European teams, he was still a child at 16 years old. You are not going to dominate grown men in a league that fouls hard.

Good for him and the resurrection of BBB? JK.

Pelicans should give some thought to trading for the lamelo pick next offseason. I think he would fit perfectly with lonzo,zion and the positionless, high tempo roster they are trying to put together over there. If they don't I could see LaVar get in Lonzo's ear to take a qualifying offer and sign with LaMelo's team the following offseason.

I feel like maybe this isn't the thread for you.

I worry he’s going get bullied in the nba by being to small but the nba has gone full on offensive play

Why would the pels do that? Lonzo ain’t stupid as well.

Rooting for the ball family to succeed. The way they are hated just because people dislike the father is disgusting.

- NBL preseason
- Reigning league MVP is 34 year old Andrew Bogut

and good for LaMelo I’m rooting for him

Why? Lamelo and Lonzo have been much higher rated prospects than LiAngelo, this isn't anything new for LiAngelo.

He's better than people think. Unfortunately having the fame he had a couple years ago it's common for people to remember him as the skinny small one that shoots a lot. He's taller, stronger and shoots well but also passes extremely well like Lonzo. He's not as good a defender but he's a very good finisher.

He may be as good as Lonzo, depends on how his IQ develops.

wow, really didn't think he'd become an NBA player. good for him.
