LaMelo Ball should not be drafted #1 overall, there's something missing - Skip | NBA | UNDISPUTED

LaMelo Ball has plenty of confidence coming into tonight’s NBA Draft. Yesterday he told reporters that he was born to be the number one overall pick. The confidence is warranted since many mock drafts do have LaMelo going to the Minnesota Timberwolves with the top pick tonight, while some have them taking Anthony Edwards. Hear what Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe have to say about the possibility of LaMelo Ball being drafted #1 overall.

Those 12 samples in the NBL was no accident. He massively improved in the JBA. Nobody gives Lavar credit but the JBA gave him G league and college experience while he was still in high school... Then he got more structured in the small time he did in Spire... He is the most ready for the Nba talent for this draft... Remenber Lamelo in the Drew league just before the NBL. A contender for MVP.

[@hakshustletv]

For anyone who have watched the ball brothers from the jump you know Lonzo & Melo aren't the same. The way they play the game is different, Melo has always been more outgoing on the court vs his brother who just seems to go with the flow of the game & then from time to time he'll step out of his comfort zone. Out of all of them I always felt like the fact that Melo doesn't play cautiously nor does he care what people think about some of the ridiculous things he does on the court like when he used to pull up from half court, that kind of heart is kinda needed for you to tap into your full potential and not be afraid to make mistakes and sometimes fail in order to learn & get to that next level.

Liangelo will never play an nba game. Lonzo has shown his ceiling is Ricky rubio and is still a liability in the 4th quarter cus he can’t hit a free throw. Lamelo is the last chance for this family to be relevant. Yeah I’m sure they mesh together they are brothers, nice hot take 😂😂😂

No team is going two put them two together

[@Astralmoonmen]

They (Lonzo and Lamelo) would have to be all star caliber players. Then use that leverage to get a team to sign Gelo

[@ralphcampbell6970]

They earned this Alonzo and Lamelo and Lavar, do you have any idea what type of commitment it required from Lavar, his wife, Alonzo, Lamelo to be both top 3 draft choices in NBA Congratulations on all levels to the Ball's This accomplishment is historic and undeniable

[@MrDanielcool]

Honestly it's tuff i think his best fit could be to fall a bit to a team that has a good couch and experience player's to help him and keep his dad a way like gw

NBA a draft is a lottery in a lot of different ways it’s like a scratch off ticket you can get a one dollar ticket win 10 dollars and be happy with that you can get a 25 dollar ticket win a million or not a thing

Say what you want about LaVar... but how many fathers can legit say they were able to put two of their sons in the NBA. Especially a father coming out of Compton, his story should be a success story “only in America”

[@jordanjenkins1671]

I can agree with that. At the moment, we know Lamelo is very gifted. But it's uncertain at the moment whether he has the DNA to be a franchise player like Damian Lillard / James Harden, or is just a taller Nick Young / DeAngelo Russell.

[@MARZOSIRUS]

I applaud Lavar Ball for being a great father. However speaking strictly basketball Lavar can only take his son's so far. Technique and form matters in sports especially basketball where any player can score. A good shooting form coach is what both brothers need. Also a mentor that has been in the NBA. The talent is there.

Lamelo literally has shown the most went to high school dominance overseas you saw the growth went back to high school and the top teams was scared to play him goes to the pro league and showed he’s the real deal like how is it a small sample size compared to everyone else who just did high school n college😭

[@DaLumpy1]

The Pistol Pete comparison is a good one; the somewhat erratic decisions

[@PharaohLawLess1]

I wouldn’t take Lamelo #1 if I’m the Timberwolves bcuz to have him in the backcourt with D’Angelo Russell will mean KAT will foul out every game with the guards on the opposing team beating those 2 off the dribble and waltzing to the basket. They should draft Edwards in stead

[@ThePacman9]

Never thought I’d say this, but I agree with Skip

[@BDFfortyfour]

Lavar was smart for moving Melo all over the place in the way that he did. It prepared him for the reality of being in the league. You may spend 10 years in Minnesota or Charlotte. If you can remain focused overseas, you can make it in small markets.
