On the sixth episode of "From The Point" podcast by Trae Young, Lonzo "Zo" Ball pulls up and sits down with Trae and his co-host and friend, Winston.
Ball, a former No.2 overall NBA draft pick and six-year vet who is dealing with a years-long knee injury, reflects on growing up in Chino Hills, playing at UCLA, being drafted by the hometown Los Angeles Lakers, learning from Rajon Rondo and LeBron James, lessons from Big Baller Brand, retooling his jump shot, what-ifs in Chicago, an ongoing injury and a pure love of hoops. Don't miss the ever-genuine Ball smile and talk for a camera for the first time in a long time.
