Los Angeles Lakers: 5 goals for Lonzo Ball’s rookie season
By Evan Massey
1. Lead the Lakers to the NBA Playoffs
Finally, taking the Los Angeles Lakers to the NBA Playoffs as a rookie should be the ultimate goal. That is a goal that many don’t think has a chance of being reached, but crazier things have happened.
LaVar Ball has been extremely vocal about his belief that Lonzo will lead the Lakers to the playoffs this season. Looking at the roster, it seems hard to believe that he will end up being able to do so, unless another move is made.
All of that being said, the Lakers need to take a step forward in their rebuilding process this season.
Los Angeles should improve their record from the 26-56 mark they finished with last season. Ball should be able to help them be much more competitive this season, but are the NBA Playoffs a possibility? Only time will tell.
