LaMelo Ball turns heads with season-opening outfit

LaMelo Ball is apparently looking to elevate his game both on and off the court in his second NBA season.

Ball made quite the statement in the Charlotte Hornets’ 123-122 win in their season opener against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night. He led the Hornets with 31 points on 11-of-23 shooting. He also had a team-high 7 assists and grabbed 9 rebounds. The performance was noteworthy, but not quite as noteworthy as the outfit he wore before and after the game.

Ball arrived at the Spectrum Center wearing the exact same outfit. The eccentric suit was the exact same color as his car.

A lot of people joked that Ball looked like Jim Carey’s character from “The Mask.”

The look was similar to one we saw James Harden wear a few years back. We can’t wait to see what else LaMelo comes up with this season.
