Lou Williams: I can see the Clippers making a play for a premier point guard. I know they’ve been in the market for one. They’ve been trying to figure out what they’re going to do at that position. And that’s one of the things that’s going to help them. You know, if you can slide James Harden back over to the two, and kind of give them that balance—put him in a position to start being a scoring guard again, as opposed to the facilitator he’s turned into with the Clippers—that may help them. On the other side of it, with Charlotte, if they draft another point guard, they’re showing you their hand. They’re showing you that they’re possibly going to move in a different direction, depending on where they draft that point guard in this draft. So I can see the Clippers making a play for LaMelo Ball—and him being able to go home and do something special at the crib.”

More on this storyline
Full basketball activities haven’t arrived yet for LaMelo Ball, but he’s coming along during the process. “Yeah, I’ve seen great consistency with him just trying to get himself back after his procedures,” Lee said, “getting in the gym, doing everything he can physically and mentally to get his body right. Because then that next phase after he gets himself back mentally and physically is to hit the court and try to work on some of those skill acquisitions. “But again, body is going to be one of the most important things so we can continue to have him durable.” -via Charlotte Observer / May 20, 2025
Lonzo Ball: “I wasn’t getting in trouble like that. Melo was getting in trouble. “Honestly, some stories I can’t even say. He was really bad. Probably the worst kid I’ve ever met. He’s calmed down a lot though—I’ll give him credit for that.” -via YouTube / May 20, 2025
On the latest episode of “The WAE Show,” Lonzo pitched a set of circumstances that would dramatically shake up the NBA landscape. “I’ve lowkey got Dylan Harper going to the Hornets, and I’ve got Melo going to the Clips.” -via athlonsports.com / May 17, 2025
