Lonzo Ball has been packing on muscle in the offseason

In his rookie season with the Los Angeles Lakers, Lonzo Ball noticeably struggled with the physicality of the NBA, particularly when attacking the rim and fighting through screens. It’s for that reason Ball has made it his primary focus to pack on muscle this offseason.

According to Ball’s teammate and fellow rookie Kyle Kuzma, the 20-year-old point guard has been “taking the weight room a lot more seriously this summer” and a picture posted by Ball on Tuesday backed that claim up.

It could just be the angle, but Ball looks a lot bigger in this picture than he did at any point during his rookie season.
