LaMelo Ball made an embarrassing season debut with the Charlotte Hornets in the NBA.

Ball went scoreless (0/5 shooting in 16 minutes of action) in the season opener against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

LaMelo Ball became the first Top-3 pick of the NBA Draft that goes scoreless in his NBA debut since Otto Porter Jr. in 2013.

He also became the fourth Top-3 Draft pick that goes scoreless in his NBA debut over the last 15 years.

The Hornets selected LaMelo Ball with the No.3 overall pick in the NBA Draft.
