LaMelo Ball scored 24 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3PT, 9-10 FT) with four rebounds, 12 assists, a block, and three turnovers across 39 minutes in Sunday's 127-126 win over the Sacramento Kings.
Fantasy Impact:
Ball registered a double-double, dishing 12 assists to pair with 24 points in a comeback win against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. The rookie point guard should be rostered in all formats and is a safe start in point formats, as his elite passing ability will always provide additional value on the occasional off-night shooting. The Hornets will turn right around to play Dame Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday, a tough assignment that could see Ball underperform. Yet he has still scored 20+ points in each of the four games on the Hornets' West Coast road trip, making him a solid investment in your lineups on Monday night.
