🍿 TUESDAY'S FINAL SCORES 🍿
LaMelo Ball hits the go-ahead bucket, and Miles Bridges seals the deal with an epic block, as the Hornets win a SoFi Play-In battle in OT and will battle for the East 8-seed on Friday!
Miles Bridges: 28 PTS, 9 REB, 3 BLK, 5 3PM
Brandon Miller: 23 PTS, 5 REB, 5 AST, 5 3PM
Erik Spoelstra on LaMelo Ball injuring Bam Adebayo: “I don't think it's cute. I don't think it's funny. I think it's a stupid play. It's a dangerous play… He should be penalized for that. I don't think that belongs in the game, tripping guys… He should have been thrown out of the game for that.“
Lamelo Ball should get his bell rung for pulling in Bam's leg. Seeing that last replay... nah bro... you did that on purpose.
the end of NBA regular season got me thinking: are the good ped/bike folks of Bluesky aware of star point guard LaMelo Ball terrorizing his own city with some of the most heinous driving ever caught on video
LaMelo Ball joins Josh Giddey as the only players in NBA Play-In Tournament history to record 30+ points, 10+ assists, and 5+ rebounds in a game.
“LaMelo Ball drives to end it” usually would involve a pink Land Rover with diamond rims hitting a stroller in a crosswalk
The Charlotte Hornets survived a game in which LaMelo Ball and Kon Knueppel combined to miss TWENTY of 22 3-point attempts
That was a freaking phenomenal basketball game.
The Hornets overcome a 6-0 heat run in the last 30 seconds of OT to win 127-126.
LaMelo Ball with the game winner and Miles Bridges with the game winning block!

I wrote this LaMelo Ball story from ~the JBA~ in 2018 two years before he was drafted. What a wild, weird journey he has been on

i don't watch a lot of Hornets Basketball... but LaMelo Ball is exactly as advertised... on both ends
Tonight’s tally:
❌ Marlins Lose 6-5 🎣
❌ Heat Lose 127-126 (OT) 💨
Fairbanks gives up 3 hits, 3 runs in the 8th as the Fish blow a 2 run lead to drop the second game in Atlanta. Huge performances from Mitchell, Ware, and Wiggins are squandered by a LaMelo Ball layup as the Heat are lottery bound.
There’s not a better player to award an Amazon-branded tacky chain with a video screen in it to celebrate winning a 9th-10th place game than LaMelo Ball, perfect corporate synergy.
