i am praying to GOD that both melo and zo stay and remain (relatively) healthy, boy have i missed them and missed you making content about a ball brother 🙏🏾
and imma need people to pay attention, cuz this is legitimately scary: notice how he can EASILY get off-balance threes to go up? if you know or play basketball, you know how important it is to have a set motion/position/routine to be a good 3 point shooter. so of course it looks like melo is not taking sh*t seriously with how “goofy looking” his attempts are and there lies the scary issue: if he’s able to shoot these off-balance, one-leg, fadeaway threes like this NOW? yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh he’s about to be a legitimate cheat code
25:11 the placing is disrespectful, but the description is so accurate lmao "One of the most wildly imaginative point guards the NBA has ever seen-- cursed with the ankles of 2011 steph curry" ☠
This kid is a monster. Been looking up to Zo all his life and playing Fortnite still thinking he could beat his brother being a foot shorter. He has unlimited confidence still and it shows.
The hornets have actually made fantastic move to build around him, it's just that all his pieces are injured the entire time. Mark Williams, miles bridges, nick Richard's, lamelo himself. Only miller is consistently healthy but even then he's showing he has zero on ball ability. It's not the hornets fault at this point
I was not a fan. He looked lazy before he got to the league, BUT..I was wrong. Melo is nice. NICE nice. There is not a point guard I would take before him, because he has the total package..and even plays defense.
You forgot to mention that tyrese made the move to Puma and is trying to become the face of it right in front of lamelos eyes. Lamelo isn’t only defending his rank in the nba, but he’s defending himself as the face of Puma. Tyrese really stepping on lamelos shoes lately
@ we all thought Tatum wouldn’t be more popular than Luka but look who’s shoes sell more. That’s a cool opinion you have, but it could easily change depending on what awards Tyrese wins, how many games his team wins, and how far he goes in the playoffs. Time will tell.
@pumapath2282 i get what you saying but some people just get that kind of fame all over the world and i say that and im not even from the us and i know lamelo before joining the nba and some friends ik only know melo steph and bron
Tyrese Haliburton playing like a bum! He's lucky he's got a 2x All star NBA Champion power forward in Pascal Siakam to bail him out and a 2x previous League leader in blocks in Myles Turner who's a great centre with strong defence and offence! Lamelo is stuck on island without any centres and without any other All star. He needs to leave Charlotte, any talent that comes through there gets ruined, i alsofeel sorry for Brandon Miller.
Another thing is that Lamelo is trying extra hard to protect his health, mainly his ankles, with him using ankle braces all season. I love to see him play and wish to see a 65-70 games season from him for years to come
I subscribed to you years ago DKM because of your fair coverage of Lamelo Ball's career. Lamelo is my favorite player because he is the most underrated yet most talented player in the NBA. If he played for USA Basketball, the world will see more of how special he is. I look forward to your great content always! 🤜🏽🤛🏽🏀
He shoots the ball so effortlessly its not the most fundamental looking shot but it falls. he plays the game at his own pace hands down the kid is a certified baller.. get this kid in a Nuggets uniform ASAP!!! ..
24:30 should have mentioned that melo WOULD HAVE had the game winning steal, which would have lead to a free run to the rim and 2 points putting them ahead, but the refs called a reaching foul, which was overturned after a challenge, but denied him his free lay after the steal. Refs won them that game.
Brandon Miller is a ton of fun to watch too, but they are a miracle tip away from being 2-8. LaMelo at 53 was disrespectful, Cade at 65 was even more disrespectful though.
Yes love this video I think melo will be one of the greatest point guard in this league and will be a hall of famer mind u he still young he ain’t reach his ceiling yet
Yup but the only thing is I believe thats Nick Manor not Onyeka, another ball player that was on the roster while melo was a freshman/sophomore. Still a really good video @DKM.
Antman the clear number one but Lamelo always been better than Hali in my opinion. Hali had a great stretch last year but I don’t see him as being a top 10 PG in the league as some have said lol
Lamelo will always and forever be number 1 🫡 finaly the hornets coaching staff is getting the point but the team needa to step it up or just trade lamelo cause they not in the same page. He would easily be averaging 32/8/12 sure he always going to have some turnover HES A POINTGAURD but the turnover that his teammates cause when fumbling the ball on a pass or just failing to finish at the rim or hit an open shot is whats annoying. Also for lamelo he needs to be aware at all time in the court, he gets comfortable and makes like mistakes that should happen(that being said he is always trying to make plays so its fair) but just be on edge every second of play. I just know lamelo and lonzo finna play together soon yall just wait on it
Watching the Hornets vs the Celtics in this years 2024 preseason, the one thing I took from that Boston win was that LaMelo Ball was a player that'd I'd like to see on the Boston roster... Over Jrue Holiday and I'm a lifelong New Englander and Boston Celtics fan
Ball is having a great start to the season. However, his scoring and efficiency this year are night and day higher than what they have been. If he keeps it up and stays healthy, he will get his due.
I was sleeping on the talent. Lamelo actually has skills, that's crazy. It seems he's not getting supported tho... you can't be a Superstar alone, he needs backup.
Hornets literally two soft 7 footers.. They are losing with all the individual talent on their team because the team is stacked with inconsistent guards and their fowards are 6’6-6’8 guarding 6’10+.. Melo just needs to get traded if they don’t make the playoffs this year
Charlotte's STARTING their 3rd string center! Mark Williams and Nick Richards are both injured. If you're going to talk know what you're talking about. 4 of 8 rotation players has been injured all year. The only gap is really the backup PG position.
It be them little brothers that cause all them damn problems! I knew from that little sneaky smile that Melo would be the best Ball Brother Although they need to stop black balling Liangelo punishing him because they don't want Lavar to be correct all three in the league.
Well lamelo has been playing at a higher level than normal since middle school, bro was on a highschool varsity basketball team with both his brothers while he was still in middle school. Seems like he’s fitting in the nba pretty nicely
I know you just didn’t say Lamelo has “HELP” for the first time… he don’t have help… when he had Gordon Hayward and Terry & PJ Washington & Miles Bridges… that was the most help he ever had
He is averaging good numbers not great with an awesome effective field goal percentage at high volume. Any team can use him but not an unique talent when you take into account his bad defense, but a serviceable player.
only freaking reporters and casual fans wrote of Mello, everyone who loves ball knew and knows he was that guy. I just hope his talent isnt going to be wasted in CHA. I dont want to see him turn into another Kemba

Facts
Stop glazing lmao
@Kingfuro1026 or else what?
Shouldn’t pray for nonsense that doesn’t mean anything it doesn’t get answer
The one foot 3 point shot is crazy work!😅
The fact that he hits those consistently is diabolical.
dlo wishes he was my boy LaMelo, dlo be doing goofy ahh sh like that and missing horribly meanwhile my pookie bear ball sinks em
vintage DKM video. Been with you since you were covering the ball bros in 2016
25:11 the placing is disrespectful, but the description is so accurate lmao "One of the most wildly imaginative point guards the NBA has ever seen-- cursed with the ankles of 2011 steph curry" ☠
Been waiting for a DKM lamelo post
Same 🙏🏽
I’ve been waiting for someone to post about melo period. People sleeping on young fella this year!
He's busy riding Caitlyn Clark
This kid is a monster. Been looking up to Zo all his life and playing Fortnite still thinking he could beat his brother being a foot shorter. He has unlimited confidence still and it shows.
I love it that we all thought them not picking scoot Henderson was a dumb idea but look up Brandon Miller now
the commentator the whole video..."lamelohhh!" yabadabadooo gabalygoooo!
They need to make some moves for him otherwise they are just wasting his talent
need to draft well. rebuild aint over
The hornets have actually made fantastic move to build around him, it's just that all his pieces are injured the entire time. Mark Williams, miles bridges, nick Richard's, lamelo himself. Only miller is consistently healthy but even then he's showing he has zero on ball ability. It's not the hornets fault at this point
All they need is a center to control the middle.
@@BlanexBlz you know what fair enough u are right I do hope we make moves tho before the deadline because Mark isn’t coming back anytime soon
Them picking up Brandon Miller was huge! I think they’ll be good they need a tough big!
He boutta have enough pull to get Zo and Gelo on the hornets
Zo yea buh gelo come on this isn’t high school ball this is a different level
Lol maybe not gelo but we haven’t seen him play in a while.. might be a monster just lurking, waiting to get back
@@DannyKing-mv3bv if bronny can why not lol
@@Bethune_Groundstaff you know what your right bro 😭

@@pumapath2282melo’s shoes will always sell more because of his personality and pre-nba brand. Tyrese doesn’t have “it.” Sorry to burst your bubble
Thank You. This really needed to be said ... and I hope Melo gets to see it one day.
Another thing is that Lamelo is trying extra hard to protect his health, mainly his ankles, with him using ankle braces all season. I love to see him play and wish to see a 65-70 games season from him for years to come
Finally we getting Lamelo videos from DKM
I subscribed to you years ago DKM because of your fair coverage of Lamelo Ball's career. Lamelo is my favorite player because he is the most underrated yet most talented player in the NBA. If he played for USA Basketball, the world will see more of how special he is. I look forward to your great content always! 🤜🏽🤛🏽🏀
Melo finally has help, but they're injured/getting injured 😭 Get this man a reliably healthy center like Zubac at least
A lamelo fan critiquing his teammates for not being healthy is comedy 😂😂😂
Great video DKM! Keep killin it man! 🏀
Come back when you have Pistol Pete stats, before proclaiming MVP comparisons.
Been saying a healthy Melo one the top guards in the league he stays healthy he a lock for all star for me
He shoots the ball so effortlessly its not the most fundamental looking shot but it falls. he plays the game at his own pace hands down the kid is a certified baller.. get this kid in a Nuggets uniform ASAP!!! ..

0:49 but hes... literally in the picture on the right next to ant
14:21 legendary melo clip
Yup but the only thing is I believe thats Nick Manor not Onyeka, another ball player that was on the roster while melo was a freshman/sophomore. Still a really good video @DKM.
Forrals that's not onyeka but the point still stands NO ONE IN THE TEAM COULD GAURD MELO lmao, he needs help tho.
Antman the clear number one but Lamelo always been better than Hali in my opinion. Hali had a great stretch last year but I don’t see him as being a top 10 PG in the league as some have said lol
I want someone to love me as much as the Hornet's announcer loves Melo. 😂
DKM is back. OG content
God how I’ve missed stuff on lamelo and the balls
Thanks for this W vid on melo im a big hornets fan and hope he can do good
Lamelo will always and forever be number 1 🫡 finaly the hornets coaching staff is getting the point but the team needa to step it up or just trade lamelo cause they not in the same page.

Bro I had to check your page he other day to make sure you’re seeing this
Vintage DKM, good video bro
future MVP right there
The art of dancing on the court, poetry in motion
@ 6:35 that statue will forever be funny 😂
someone was out to get him lol
@ had to lmao 🤣
Ball is having a great start to the season. However, his scoring and efficiency this year are night and day higher than what they have been. If he keeps it up and stays healthy, he will get his due.
He just has to stay healthy really
Ball brother content has returned 🥲🥲🥲
20:06 is a crazy sequence and save man how LaMelo and the defense tripped on each other to end up getting the ball
Bro the Hornets would benefit a lot if they had Dwight Howard my god he would dominate with Lamelo
I was thinking the samething
Charlotte is playing with their 3rd string center. Mark Williams and Nick Richards are both out with injuries.
20:05 gave me chills idk why
Probably cause it's true.
not to mention both of the centers have been injured for most of the season so he could probably be doing even better
Maybe going to work every day isn’t important in the UK, here In The States, we put a lot of value on BEING AT WORK. The best ability is availability
How isnt it important in the UK?
@ Over your head I guess
I was sleeping on the talent. Lamelo actually has skills, that's crazy.
It seems he's not getting supported tho... you can't be a Superstar alone, he needs backup.
Timeless classic epic
You foul for that statue 🤣
DKM Doing what DKM does best 🎉
DKM IM SO HAPPY RN
Back to the OG content!
Very fun video. I'm subscribed but haven't seen any notifications lately.
Hoping Melo has a healthy and great season.
Where's Gelo?
Hornets literally two soft 7 footers.. They are losing with all the individual talent on their team because the team is stacked with inconsistent guards and their fowards are 6’6-6’8 guarding 6’10+.. Melo just needs to get traded if they don’t make the playoffs this year
Get traded or or trade for lonzo, bye trea/mark/Cody 👋🏽
Heck Mason Plumlee was a better centre than these dudes, only issue was he sucked at free throws.
melo to warriors
Charlotte's STARTING their 3rd string center! Mark Williams and Nick Richards are both injured. If you're going to talk know what you're talking about.
4 of 8 rotation players has been injured all year. The only gap is really the backup PG position.
@@OBLOCKWOLF-iq2eg could happen just before Steph is ready to retire (homecoming)
I know Jordan be Old Man Laughing watching Melo "he he he"
Happy to see LaMelo playing so well especially since he had a lot of haters and doubters when he 1st entered the NBA
My favourite part about watching Melo is the commentary they deserve a % of his salary
It be them little brothers that cause all them damn problems! I knew from that little sneaky smile that Melo would be the best Ball Brother
Although they need to stop black balling Liangelo punishing him because they don't want Lavar to be correct all three in the league.
Yeah he is really great to watch even if you're not a hornets fan.
His confidence and the trust he's making up and living up to expectations is unmatched 😊
Bro its the team,hornets cant figure it out around him,and they never get a solid big man on the roster ever
i wish hornets traded and got okongwu , i would love to see that chino hills duo again haha
Man I been waiting for bruh to get healthy. He gonna be alrighr
He's got the team on his back, but the team isn't backing him. 😅 Sad.
Craziest part about Lamelo is that I think that he can be 3x better than he already is 😂
🍇Ooohh, yall member the narrative when
Melo went to hoop with Lithuania nem'
Well lamelo has been playing at a higher level than normal since middle school, bro was on a highschool varsity basketball team with both his brothers while he was still in middle school. Seems like he’s fitting in the nba pretty nicely
I love the commentators they so funny😂😂
Lamelo only does what his last name is, BALL!
Great video!
Ja more entertaining than Lamelo, but Lamelo still entertaining tho.
Not a single mention of Trey Man? You gotta be kidding me
People really wanted to sleep on melo … I knew this shit was coming
Charlotte has the best anouncer
Dope video
What a draft class!!! Desmond baine
14:14 hot diddly doe😂
That boy cooking
Isn't LaMelo exciting must see tv, very fun to watch
53 is cap cause he’s the best PG right now
I’m telling you right now don’t let him get Lonzo over there cause there gonna run team out the gym with miller and bridges
I know you just didn’t say Lamelo has “HELP” for the first time… he don’t have help… when he had Gordon Hayward and Terry & PJ Washington & Miles Bridges… that was the most help he ever had
Have hit every parlay the last 6 ive made on him this kid HITS
The boy in the hoodie is not Onyeka. That look like a different person.
i totally agree lamaelo ball is the goat and is better then prime kobe jordan shaq and dennis rodmen
He is averaging good numbers not great with an awesome effective field goal percentage at high volume. Any team can use him but not an unique talent when you take into account his bad defense, but a serviceable player.
Soon as lamelo can leave he’s definitely leaving he’s a big market player
He is for sure and to think Golden State had a chance to get him, could we imagine him over there!😮
@@mus434Its there loss.
I forgot about DKM bro fell off after Lavar dissed him 😂😂😂
On point 💎
Hornets the only team i watch
Who grant Williams think he is taking the last shot like bro u is not the main character 😂😂😂
They won’t broadcast it cause his dad called it. They don’t want him to be right at all.
11:23 is crazy how similar that is
melo made me stop giving a fuck about my thumb flick
Wemby scored 50 bro we ain’t focused on LaMelo right now
I love see 7-8 y.o. comments that sayed:"lamelo overrated never gonna make nba, is only a cerrypicker bla bla bla..."
TYLER HERRO BETTER! Is gelo ever coming back?
only freaking reporters and casual fans wrote of Mello, everyone who loves ball knew and knows he was that guy. I just hope his talent isnt going to be wasted in CHA. I dont want to see him turn into another Kemba
Melo is a literal 2K player
yea he's def better than his brothers... & low key underrated.
Fwwy??? Melo is a beast!!! 👹👹
