Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball is one of the brightest young stars in the NBA today. This is exactly why it comes to no surprise that he always catches the eye of fans wherever he goes.
A few weeks ago, the reigning Rookie of the Year had a bit of a curious exchange with a fan sitting courtside as the Indiana Pacers hosted the Hornets. Here’s a look at the clip which unsurprisingly, has already gone completely viral (h/t SportsCenter on Twitter):

Ball was smiling throughout the exchange and the fan also appeared to be in a jovial mood.
