REPORT: Cavs have ‘extensively scouted’ potential No.1 pick LaMelo Ball
报导：骑士队正在“广泛地观察”潜在的状元郎-LaMelo Ball
It's still just December, but NBA scouts are already doing their due diligence
in scouting for next year's draft. Per Sam Amico on Sports Illustrated, the
Cleveland Cavaliers have particularly scouted potential NO.1 overall pick
LaMelo Ball in preparation for what could be a top draft pick for the Cavs in
June 2020.
虽然现在还只有12月，但NBA的球探们已经开始尽职调查明年的选秀了。根据《体育画报》
的Sam Amico报导，克里夫兰骑士队特别观察了潜在的状元-LaMelo Ball(的表现)，这也
是为了2020年6月份可能得到状元签做好准备。
Like all teams, the Cavs have already started planning for the draft. They
are scouting college teams and international clubs. They have extensively
scouted potential No.1 overall pick and basketball celebrity LaMelo Ball,
currently playing in Australia.
和其他球队一样，骑士队已经开始为选秀做准备了。他们正在物色大学球队、国际俱乐部
的(球员)。他们已广泛调查目前正在澳大利亚打球的潜在状元、篮球明星-LaMelo Ball。
As mentioned, Ball is playing for the Illawara Hawks alongside former NBA
journeyman Aaron Brooks in the NBL, Australia’s premiere professional
basketball league.
如上所述，Ball和前NBA球员Aaron Books目前正一起效力于澳大利亚国家联赛(NBL)的伊
拉瓦拉老鹰队。
LaMelo, the youngest brother of New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball, has
been making a lot of noise in his 2019-20 season with the Hawks. A few weeks
back, he became the first player in the NBL 40-minutes era to record two
consecutive triple-doubles.
LaMelo是纽奥良鹈鹕后卫Lonzo Ball最小的弟弟，在他效力于老鹰队的2019-20赛季中，
他制造了不小的话题性。几个礼拜前，他才成为了史上第一位在40分钟赛制的时代，还能
连续2场比赛大三元的球员。
Ball definitely makes a case for the top selection in next year's NBA draft.
He is a very skilled and versatile guard who can score in a variety of ways
and also make plays for his teammates.
毫无疑问地，Ball将会是明年NBA选秀会的状元大热门。他是一名技巧非常好、多才多艺
的后卫，他可以用各种方式去得分，也可以为队友创造机会。
Likewise, the appeal of drafting a player with professional basketball
internationally is growing with the rise of Luka Doncic. Ball is certainly
holding his own against grown men in the NBL.
同样地，随着Luka Doncic的崛起，(对NBA球队而言)从国际篮坛上挑选球员的吸引力正逐
渐变大。(也因此)Ball肯定会坚持自己的路，待在NBL。
The knock on LaMelo, however, is his efficiency. Analysts are concerned
whether this issue will eventually translate into the NBA. Through 12 games
with Illawara, Ball is shooting at a just 37.5 percent from the field and a
putrid 25.0 percent from beyond the arc to go along with nightly averages of
17.0 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.6 steals.
然而，LaMelo的弱点就在于他的效率。数据分析师也担心这个问题最终会不会也带进NBA
赛场上。在伊拉瓦拉老鹰的12场比赛中，Ball的命中率只有37.5%、三分线的命中率也只
有25.0%。平均每场比赛可以贡献17.0分、7.6篮板、6.8助攻、1.6抄截。
If the Cavs do get their hands on LaMelo next year, that would mark the third
time in as many years that they would draft a guard. Nevertheless, as many
teams have learned in the past, it's always best to get the best player
available and work from there.
如果骑士明年真的能得到LaMelo，那将是他们近年来选进的第3个后卫。尽管如此，就像
以往许多球队学到的那样，最好的方法就是选择最好的球员，让他们在那个位置上工作。
心得：球弟的命中率跟球哥有像
