Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is looking to stay healthy and make a big impact during the 2025-26 NBA season. Ball most recently led the Hornets to a 120-116 win on Saturday night. However, ESPN reporter Tim MacMahon still found issues with Ball's overall game, via NBA on ESPN.
"LaMelo Ball took a catch-and-shoot fadeaway three early in the shot clock," MacMahon said. "I watched him play... I think I exclaimed five or six times, 'This is bleeping ridiculous' after he threw up just some ridiculous shots."
It's been a trend for Ball.
