NBA veteran Jamal Crawford really likes draft prospect LaMelo Ball. The 40-year-old guard reacted to LaMelo’s highlights on Twitter.
Former Los Angeles Clipper was especially impressed with Ball’s feel for the game. “His feel for the game is ridiculous!! He’s so cold. Young [king],” he tweeted.
The youngest brother of Lonzo Ball spent the season in Australian NBL with the Illawarra Hawks. He was named the NBL Rookie of the Year. LaMelo averaged 17 points, 7.5 rebounds and 7 assists per game. He expected to be a top five pick in the NBA Draft.
Crawford himself is a free agent but hopes to get an NBA deal soon.
