#In just four short games into his rookie season with the #Charlotte #Hornets, #LaMelo #Ball has made history multiple times. #After being on the wrong side of history in his first game in the NBA in which he finished scoreless, #Ball was on the right side of history on #Wednesday.
#Against the #Mavericks, #Ball finished with 22 points, nine rebounds and five assists off the bench in a 118-99 win over the #Mavericks on the road. #It was the first time a #Hornets rookie had record 15 points, five rebounds and five assists in a game since #Kemba #Walker did so in #April of 2012.
#Moreso, it’s the first time in nearly three decades that a #Hornets rookie has recorded 20 points, five rebounds and five assists off the bench in a game since #Kendall #Gill did so in 1991.
#Ball had it all going on #Wednesday, shooting 7-of-10 from the field and 4-of-5 from the three-point line while adding a block and a steal to his stat line in the win.
