NBA Twitter reacts as LaMelo Ball creates an incredible highlight alongside Miles Bridges during breakaway vs Magic

 

LaMelo Ball seems to pop off more and more with every passing game for the Hornets.

Despite the franchise suffering a disappointing 116-109 loss to the Orlando Magic, Melo recorded an impressive 23 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, and 3 steals, while shooting 44,4% from the field, and 42.9% from beyond the arc.

But it wasn’t all just numbers. While his 8 assists do look good without context as well, let’s just say, one of them was a pretty stunning highlight. And as you’d expect with the popularity of player like Ball, NBA Twitter can’t stop going crazy over it.

Let’s get into it, shall we?

Take look at the tweet below, if you wish to see beauty in motion.

As we said earlier, NBA Twitter went absolutely crazy over this little play.

We still can’t believe that only counts for 1 assist.
