LaMelo Ball spoke on the first start of his career in the Charlotte Hornets’ win over the Miami Heat Monday night. James Borrego inserted Ball to the starting lineup, due to Terry Rozier sitting out with an ankle injury.

“I ain’t even look at it like that,” Ball said after the game. “This is another game and (I’m) just playing basketball. Whenever I get out there, I try my best. It’s like another game.”

The Hornets made an epic comeback in the last 2:47 of the regulation returning from a 10-point deficit to defeat the Heat in overtime.

Despite not shooting the ball well, the Hornets’ rookie filled his stat line registering 14 points, seven assists and five rebounds to help his team win the second game in a row.

“I mean, whenever we win, no matter how I play, I’m going to have a good time. I love winning and we got that tonight so I’m walking out of here happy.”
