Looks like the Ball family wants to make their mark in the NBA. With the offseason, LaMelo Ball is considered the top prospect in the 2020 NBA Draft, just like his brother, Lonzo Ball in 2017. As LaMelo is en route to his transition into the NBA, many teams have shown keen interest in the young star, and the Chicago Bulls have added themselves to that list. The Bulls have a lot of decision making to do this offseason. Failing to make it to the playoffs for the last three years, they need to make several important roster upgrades to help them remain relevant in the Eastern Conference. As one of the most popular franchises in the league, the Bulls have overhauled their front office and coaching staff to improve their chances in the upcoming season. They also have the No. 4 pick in the Draft. Therefore, it looks like they are going to do everything in their power to bring in LaMelo Ball. Many believe that they are also willing to sacrifice key pieces like Wendell Carter Jr, and Lauri Markkanen. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/4134c36b-2692-41da-bdb4-e6b01d687086-LaMelo_Ball_-scaled.jpeg] CAN LAMELO BALL BE THE FACE OF THE CHICAGO BULLS’ FRANCHISE? The Bulls haven’t won an NBA Championship since the 90s. If they want to increase their chances for the title, they need all the help available. They have been lacking a stable, consistent, and game-changing superstar for themselves. Lauri Markkanen and Zach LaVine have given the Bulls a ray of hope, but they still require a starting guard to lead them. Playing just 12 games in the NBL, LaMelo averaged [https://www.basketball-reference.com/international/players/lamelo-ball-1.html] 17 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 6.8 assists per game. Also, declared as the MVP looks like he might be the man that brings back the Bull into contention. “I’ve heard the Bulls are fans of LaMelo,” Givony said on the Lowe Post [http://www.espn.com/espnradio/podcast/archive/_/id/10528553] with ESPN’s Zach Lowe. “They do have some really good pieces in place. I’m hearing that they like Lauri Markkanen a lot more right now than Wendell Carter Jr. That he’s more of an untouchable.” [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/1056884870-scaled.jpeg]PHILADELPHIA, PA – OCTOBER 18: Zach LaVine #8 of the Chicago Bulls looks on against the Philadelphia 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center on October 18, 2018 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

<h2>LaMelo Ball 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
[caption id="attachment_545093" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-545093" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210209090923/2021-01-15T015436Z_332056335_MT1USATODAY15434372_RTRMADP_3_NBA-CHARLOTTE-HORNETS-AT-TORONTO-RAPTORS-1.jpg" alt="LaMelo Ball" width="1920" height="1280" /> Jan 14, 2021; Tampa, Florida, USA; Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (2) brings the ball up the court during the first quarter of a game against the Toronto Raptors at Amalie Arena.

LaMelo Ball is a 6'6" point guard who plays for the Charlotte Hornets. They drafted him with their third pick in the 2020 NBA Draft.

LaMelo can contribute on either side of the floor. Ball is a gifted ball-handler and almost ambidextrous in his passing ability. He is easily one of the best passers to enter the NBA in a while. LaMelo is also a great rebounder and a versatile defender.

He is a scoring threat from anywhere on the floor, including the deep three-point range. However, his efficiency as a scorer has suffered due to his poor and immature shot selection.
<h2>LaMelo Ball Overseas Stats</h2>
LaMelo Ball played one season for the Illawarra Hawks in the National Basketball League in Australia. He put up strong <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/international/players/lamelo-ball-1.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">numbers</a>, but had very inconsistent shooting splits.

<h2>LaMelo Ball NBA Stats</h2>
In his debut season in the NBA, Ball lived up to the high expectations. He played his role as both facilitator and scorer for the Hornets, averaging <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/ballla01.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">15.7 points</a>, 6.1 assists and 5.9 rebounds per game in the 2020-21 season.
<h2>LaMelo Ball Charlotte Hornets</h2>
After being drafted with the third overall pick, LaMelo has instantly become a star at Charlotte. He was a weapon off the bench for coach James Borrego, before injuries to starters allowed him to enter the starting lineup. Becoming a starter further elevated his performances, and despite spending some time on the sidelines due to injury, he made a successful return to claim the Rookie of the Year award for the 2020-21 season. He has not only become the focal point of their offense but also the floor general. And as he develops his game, his role as a primary scoring option will also increase.

Before he played a single game in the NBA, Ball signed a deal with PUMA which could be <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamzagoria/2020/10/14/lamelo-ball-officially-signs-with-puma/?sh=2f486a8b57f0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">valued at up to $100 million</a>.

<h2>LaMelo Ball Puma Deal</h2>

LaVar Ball has set an example for what a basketball parent should and shouldn't do. Forcing your children to play NBA basketball in sub-standard shoes is a definite no.

LaVine developed an interest in basketball at a very young age and drew inspiration from Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. He was born on March 10, 1995, in Renton, Washington, and attended Bothell High School, where he started off as a point guard. 

As a senior, LaVine was honored with the Washington Mr.Basketball title and he impressed with averages of 28.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. He then committed to UCLA after high-school where he completed one year of college. 

LaVine was transformed into an effective sixth man, and he shot 44.1% from the field as a freshman. He garnered a lot of acclaim as a shooting guard and decided to forego his remaining years at UCLA after declaring for the 2014 <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" rel="noopener noreferrer">NBA</a> Draft. 

LaVine did not waste time during the 2020 quarantine and got <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/bulls/zach-lavine-makes-most-quarantine-getting-engaged-hunter-mar" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">engaged </a>to his longtime girlfriend, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/hunter_mar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Hunter Mar</a>.
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Zach LaVine NBA career</h2>
LaVine was a highly heralded player coming out of college and he went as the 13th overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft. The <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/minnesota-timberwolves/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Minnesota Timberwolves</a> sealed his services and LaVine came off the bench in his first year. A few injuries to his teammates here and there allowed LaVine to start games as a rookie. 

The Washington native played all 82 games as a sophomore and posted averages of 14.0 points and 3.1 assists. Moreover, LaVine showcased his high-flying skills at the All-Star weekend and won the Slam Dunk Contest twice in 2015 and 2016.

The Timberwolves then traded LaVine to the Chicago Bulls in 2017, along with the draft rights to Lauri Markkanen. His debut season in Chicago was plagued by injuries as LaVine missed both the start and the conclusion to the 2017/18 NBA season.
