Shot very poorly, was cost assists by Zu, Thomas, and Wear, and still got a triple double and the win.
Last 3 games: 21.0 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 11.3 ast Summer League or not, is there anyone at summer league playing this year that players want to play with more than Lonzo Ball. Not a chance!
I honestly don't think trodgers would be moved by much of this. His main concerns about Ball have remained. He hasn't shot mid range, and he's been awful from 3. Luckily he's been able to get to the hoop some, his passing is as good as advertised, and he has a knack for rebounding to make up for the scoring/shooting so far. But trodgers main concerns remain valid for real NBA games, Ball has got to improve that shooting.
Been on that JayZ & Ye Paris swag...but F that, its all about them Lakkas in Vegas feat. KuZ & Zo #BallsoHard Those back to backs are coming and they will be coming in hard when the regular season starts. So dude needs to call up Gunnar and the big homie Kob, to get that conditioning way up. The shooting will come, but roughly half those turnovers and 3 ball heaves were due to dude being gassed. Guess that happens when you #BallsoHard...
Sure, but at the same time how many rookies come into the NBA shooting lights out? Not many. Ball has to improve his shooting and defense like about 99.9 percent of the kids that come out.
I'm not worried about it myself, but I can see trodgers still having concerns, and that's entirely fair. I think Ball will adjust to the NBA 3, he had that range at UCLA, but it's no guarantee. But yeah, it's so early, he's putting up triple doubles with ease and it's not like any other summer league players are, he will get better.
It really is ... he's just playing around and then he's like got 8/7/7 at the half Not only is he an amazing passer he's got a great nose for the ball which is why he's getting easy boards
5-6 of his misses in the second half were lazy jacked up shots due to fatigue. These are things that will certainly improve as he gets settled into the NBA.
