Charlotte Hornets pulled the trigger with the number 3 overall pick in the NBA Draft and drafted the promising star Lamelo Ball. Not only did the Hornets make a huge move bringing the youngest Ball son to Charlotte but this is the first time in NBA history of two brothers (Lonzo Ball 2017 & Lamelo Ball 2020) have gotten drafted in the top 5 picks…ever. Charlotte instantly welcomed in the Ball family with open arms.
