Minnesota Timberwolves Draft Profile: LaMelo Ball

LaMelo Ball is one of the most pro-ready basketball players in this draft and should be high on the Minnesota Timberwolves’ radar. He is a pro-ready player that would fit very well with the existing pieces that the Timberwolves already have on the roster.

Ball played this past season for the Illawarra Hawks of the National Basketball League in Oceania – a team which he later bought (yes, bought) alongside his manager Jermaine Jackson. As a 6-foot-8 point guard, he struggled with efficiency but showed flashes in every aspect of his game. Ball, former UCLA commit, is one of the best players in this draft class.
