Why LaMelo Ball will join Ja Morant, Anthony Edwards as the faces of the NBA

It’s early, it’s empty and LaMelo Ball is tired.

Before his team took the court to practice for Friday’s Rising Stars Challenge, he began his media gauntlet through the back hallways of the Wolstein Center, the arena for Cleveland's G League team and secondary home of the NBA’s All-Star weekend.

He’d just arrived that morning after a double overtime game the night before against the Miami Heat and had even less to say than usual.

“Happy to be here,” he said.

Any must-sees?
