Lonzo Ball has been something of a divisive figure ever since he was first d
rafted by the Los Angeles Lakers with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2017 NBA
Draft. Due in part to the sheer, overstated fanfare that accompanied his ju
mp to the pro ranks, Ball has been a lightning rod for undeserved praise and
overstated criticism.
There is no better example of how insane the rhetoric surrounding Ball gets
than last year’s conversation regarding how bad of a shooter he was. Statis
tically, he was a better three-point shooter than Devin Booker. Would anyone
know that based on how folks talk about him? Of course not.
This past offseason Ball and the New Orleans Pelicans were unable to agree o
n a rookie extension. As a result, he is set to become a restricted free age
nt next summer. There is an expectation that the two sides will sit down at
some point and at least discuss a long-term deal, but it’s clear that the P
elicans are in no hurry to pay Ball big money.
New Orleans slow-playing this situation has led many to wonder: could Ball p
ossibly be on the move?
According to Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson, five teams have reached out to th
e Pelicans regarding Ball’s status. The list includes: the New York Knicks,
Toronto Raptors, Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles Clippers and Orlando Magic.
球哥自从2017年被湖人第二顺位选中后 就常常被批评
场外八卦比场内多
上季批评说他外线不准
实际上他三分比太阳的Booker还准
但没人会这样认为 都印象他外线很差
这次的休赛季Ball想要顶薪
但是鹈鹕不同意 也不急着给大约
下赛季球哥将成为受限自由球员
预计双方会好好谈一谈未来的方向
鹈鹕这样的动作让大家在怀疑球哥还会继续在鹈鹕吗？
根据Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson报导
有五队对球哥非常有兴趣
分别是快艇 尼克 暴龙 独行侠 魔术
