Magic Johnson says Lakers are not going to change Lonzo Ball's shot
Magic: We’re gonna let him shoot and play his game. If after the season, and he’s not shooting well, then we’ll sit down with him and say, ‘Hey, let’s maybe look at different way or let’s try to improve the way you are shooting
Lakers president Magic Johnson said that the franchise is not planning to change Lonzo Ball’s shot.
Ball is shooting with 31.3% from the field, 25% from the arc and 50% from the line.
Per USA Today, Lakers president Magic Johnson joined Mike & Mike on Monday and discussed why the Lakers aren’t going to change Ball’s shot.
Johnson said:
“I think it’s a fine line because what you have to do is first, he’s been shooting that way his whole life. So what we wanted to do is let him play his game. Let him shoot the way he’s been shooting and hopefully they’ll go in. And so, we’re not gonna mess with it. We’re gonna let him shoot and play his game. If after the season, and he’s not shooting well, then we’ll sit down with him and say, ‘Hey, let’s maybe look at different way or let’s try to improve the way you are shooting.'”
He continued:
“We can break it down with him, but we don’t want to mess with his shot. He’s proven that he’s knocked that shot down. And we want to encourage him to keep shooting.”
