Sounds like he checks off the all the character boxes to make it in the NBA. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant
Lonzo will be the only Ball brother to ever play in a NBA game.
I actually think LaMelo has a shot to make it. Mucher slimmer now given the lack of organized competition he'll have faced by the time he's 19, of course. _________________ Under New Management
A 17 year old got smacked in the head during a game and didn't respond the best way? Shocking.

6’7 combo guards don’t grow on trees though. And he was already a 5 star prospect at 6’2ish. He’ll get an opportunity in the NBA although I question if he’ll do anything with it for the reasons you mentioned and his arrogance from being a young teen celebrity.

Yeah, I have no idea what coaches will have the patience to try to break him of his selfishness or if Melo would even be receptive to changing his game. _________________ Under New Management
pshhh I don't have a problem with how he reacted. Celeb or not that wasn't bad at all. I'd have less respect for him if he flopped down and cried like some NBA players would do.
The Litho guy was trying to punk him and physically hit him IN THE HEAD for whatever reason, trying to intimidate whatever. In the NBA they'll be coming at him harder and it's good to see that LaMelo has some dog in him not to take a cheapshot standing.
