BOOM! There really is no other word as the prophecy has come to fruition: UCLA Basketball’s Lonzo Ball is officially part of the Los Angeles Lakers’ organization.
With the #2 overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, the Lakers used their lottery pick to select one of the most talented (if not THE most talented) players to come out of college.
Though there has been some serious hype surrounding Ball since he left high school, he proven that he has the talent to back it up.
Last season, he helped turn a 15-17 UCLA Basketball squad into a 31-5 contender that returned the Bruins to the Sweet 16.
