LaMelo Ball★
The Hornets' flashy franchise point guard and one of the league's most creative passers — his 90th-percentile playmaking shows up in 7.1 assists a night with deep-range pull-ups (36.8% from three, 89.9% at the line). The downside is the cost: a 32% usage and 40.7% from the floor, almost nothing at the rim, and a turnover-prone, hands-off defender. Electric, but the efficiency and durability still have to catch up to the talent.
