LaMelo had a universal performance in the winning match and was very close to the record. The third call of the NBA Rookie Trade this year scored 12 points, bounced 10 balls and had 9 assists and left within a small step of the triple-double.
Had this 19- and 139-day-old defender managed to capture a triple-double, he would have become the youngest basketball player to do so in league history.
Still, the record still belongs to severely traumatized Orlando Magic talent Markelle Fultz (19 years, 319 days).

On the other side of the barricades is Lonzo, who has been in his own shadow. The main organizer of the Pelicans’ attacks spent up to 36 minutes on the court, but scored only 5 points, bounced 2 balls and had 3 assists.
It is true that the Ballai brothers did not show their skills much to each other. Figures from ESPN say Lonzo attacked the basket once when he was covered by a younger LaMelo and the shot was inaccurate.
LaMelo, when the latter was covered by a brother, hit 1 pitch of 2 and made 1 error.
“When we were younger, we always talked about it,” LaMelo said of the brothers’ clash on the NBA court. – We always knew we would be here in the NBA League. At last the time has come “.
Dominant Zion Williamson, who scored 26 points and grabbed 8 rebounds, also didn’t save the hosts from defeat.
“Pelicans of New Orleans”: Zion Williamson 26, Josh Hart 19 (8th ed.), Brandon Ingram (8th ed., 8th ed.) And JJ Redick after 17, Steven Adams 13.
“Charlotte Hornets”: Gordon Hayward 26 (Rev. 7), Miles Bridges 20, Devonte Graham 17 (Rev. 6, Rev. 8), Terry Rozier 15, LaMelo Ball 12.
