LaMelo Ball is such a dynamic player and I’m shocked he’ll drop this low in the draft. He would definitely go higher if the top three teams needed a guard. The greatness of Ball is usually overlooked because of the antics of his over-the-top father.

LaMelo Ball is a major talent and he will be the perfect pick for the Chicago Bulls. Obviously, the team has an array of bigs in Wendall Carter Jr, Lauri Markkanen and some various other big men. Even though the team has inconsistent Colby White and slam-dunk snub Zach Lavine. Apparently, the team is shopping Lavine and could be moving him soon for some better assets.

Ball would bring some excitement to Chicago, which is something the roster hasn’t had in a long time. Ball played well overseas instead of going to college and had a decent stat line. Ball averaged 17 points per game while shooting at a solid 38 percent. His versatility comes into play with his seven rebounds and nearly seven assists. Ball can be a great playmaker and can elevate this Bulls team, in a way that it needs to happen.
