Lonzo Ball shines under MSG spotlight, but Lakers fall short

NEW YORK -- On one end of Madison Square Garden's Celebrity Row, Magic Johnson and Odell Beckham Jr. sat next to each other, chatting and laughing it up. On the other end of the row where the famous sit in The World's Most Famous Arena, LaVar Ball, his wife Tina and sons LiAngelo and LaMelo were seated a few seats away from Spike Lee.

There was enough personality on Celebrity Row to light up Broadway for Lonzo Ball's New York debut. And Ball, the Lakers and Knicks gave everyone in the building their money's worth by going overtime before Kristaps Porzingis lifted the Knicks to a 113-109 victory.
