Lakers G.M. compares Lonzo Ball to NFL’s best quarterbacks

For reasons neither obvious nor apparent, the General Manager of the L.A. Lakers has compared the team's latest first-round draft pick to the two best quarterbacks in the NFL. "In press conferences, I don't like a lot of hyperbole and a whole bunch of words," Rob Pelinka said regarding Lonzo Ball, via Rob Baxter of ESPN.com. The way he passes the ball, you look at quarterbacks like Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers, that just have a gift.
