2. Los Angeles Lakers Select Lonzo Ball, PG, UCLA
Year: Freshman
The Lakers are in the enviable position where they get to sit back and take whoever is still available between Fultz and Ball, though the latter stands out as the better fit for their situation. While Fultz is regarded as the better scorer, Ball is the best floor general in the country. Not only does he orchestrate the third-most efficient offense in the country, but he ranks 29th in the country in assist-to-turnover ratio, which is highly impressive considering how fast the Bruins play.
Ball's size, vision and passing would allow him to run point right away for Luke Walton, allowing D'Angelo Russell to slip into a more comfortable role as a scoring two-guard. (Getty)
