Charlotte Hornets’ LaMelo Ball ‘not really’ excited about facing LeBron James for first time – ESPN Australia
Charlotte Hornets rookie LaMelo Ball said he doesn’t expect to feel any added excitement when he faces LeBron James for the first time Thursday night.
When Rookie of the Year front-runner LaMelo Ball takes the court against LeBron James for the first time in his young career later this week, he says he doesn’t expect to feel any added excitement competing against the 18-year veteran.
“I mean, nah,” Ball, 19, told reporters on a videoconference Tuesday ahead of the Charlotte Hornets’ game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday. “I grew up a little different. Not really on basketball like that. So, not really.”
Ball’s statement wasn’t a slight…
