Best thing about Lonzo Ball is that him being there limits how much Bryce Alford has the basketball.
I'm actually more concerned that he's only around 185 lbs. for a 2-guard. That's Zach Lavine territory and would seem to hurt him defensively. He can fill out and add strength though. Yeah, would be huge for him if he can add an inch or two.

UK's freshmen are just so good. Monk's offensive game is advanced as any wing i've seen in the last few years.
Bam will be better in the NBA than college, but he'll continue to get better and be a pretty damn good college player too.
Fox gets his shot going, watch out. Some weird cross between Rondo and Wall.
Gabriel may have to wait until next year to show his stuff - if he can beat out the new crop Cal brings in - but his length and athleticism, if he can show some production, may just be enough to sell NBA GMs.
Crazy to think #1 was a McD's AA and can barely crack the rotation.
This UK team has about as good a mix of stud freshmen and vets who can contribute valuable minutes, the usual length and athleticism and shooting as any UK team since Cal has been there. Not saying they are the best, but they may be the most balanced. Scary.
So with Monk being projected top-5 there's kind of an elephant comparison in the room and thats Russell Westbrook.. There's certainly some parallels..
