New Orleans Pelicans: Why the Pelicans should not give up on Lonzo Ball

Lonzo Ball is reportedly on the trade block for the New Orleans Pelicans, but he should not be discarded so quickly.

Lonzo Ball is one of the NBA’s most polarizing players. Some games, he looks like every bit of the no. 2 pick he was in the 2017 draft. Others, he resembles an end-of-the-bench point guard who is unreliable from three and is shy attacking the basket.

The truth about Ball right now is actually somewhere in between, although I would wager much more towards the positive end of the spectrum.
