LaMelo Ball's 2020 draft prospects look good

LaMelo Ball could follow his older brother Lonzo to the NBA next season

Since bursting onto the national scene in 2017, LaVar Ball has continually expressed his desire to have all three of his sons playing in the NBA. 21-year-old Lonzo was drafted as the No.2 pick back in 2017, while 20-year-old LiAngelo Ball last played for the Los Angeles Ballers.

LaMelo is the youngest of the three Ball brothers, and ESPN's latest Draft Express is predicting that the 17-year-old will be an early second-round pick in the 2020 NBA draft.

Standing at 6ft 5in, Ball has stood out for both his ball-handling skills and proficiency as a three-point shooter. Just like LiAngelo, the youngest Ball has spent time with the Ballers and among his most notable performances of late include the 55 points, 16 rebound and seven assist display he enjoyed against New York.
