Watching Melo makes me smile, kid absolutely earned his spot in the NBA and he's so comfortable being there. To ball like this against the elite is insane.

Melo plays as if he’s in the school gym during free period playing with his homies before going back to class. Just pure enjoyment & I love watching it.

I love that he sacrifices his own chances to score to let his teammates shine.

1:05 “stroke it with size”😱😳😯😂🤣😂

Idk what’s better … The LaMelo Highlights or the Hornets Commentators 😂😂😂😂💯

I must say, watching Melo is more entertaining than watching any other NBA player. He's quick and he's witty. And he scores! And his ball passing game is on point more than anybody else in the NBA.

Used to hate Lamelo for no reason ..but seeing him make it to the NBA is something special . The kid has talent , heart , and brings great crowd reaction. I hope he stays in charlotte for a while . Never seen the arena so packed and hyped in decades . I hope he wins an NBA title in the future

The Kid is honestly a genius, his passing, IQ, Hustle, shot, Drive, Handle, and Heart its all there... that family created a prodigy, even his Brothers said it repeatedly "the best out of all of us is Melo" crazy cause we saw him grow up through Chino Hills since he was like 15 playing Varsity as a starter, and winning championships, Insane!!.. I hope he gets a Title..

His playing style is fun to watch.

2:13 “DESIRE! HE JUST WANTED IT!” 😂😂 facts

i honestly didn’t realise how crazy his highlights are already, he looks incredible while he plays. he makes the hornets look like a championship contending team

Dude!!! Look at how often LaMelo will pass before taking the shot! Seeing how much he includes his team mates in his success and how often he uses his skillset to make his teammates shine has me like "Man! I would TOTALLY want to play ball with someone like that!" The leadership skills are undeniable!

Dudes game is just crisp, crazy seeing him from a small kid to developing into such a natural player.

I'm not a huge basketball fan, but Melo makes it so much fun to watch. Some players just have that "it" factor and he's definitely one of them.

He has this unique and unpredictable style. Not boring to watch unlike those big names that don't pass the ball for them own fame.

You can tell LaMelo simply trusts he's playing with teammates who fully understand they're all professionals at the highest level of the sport. The flow is sick!!!🔥🤩🏀

What I like about his playing is a) stealing/blocking ability - he has fingertips like a gecko b) he's not greedy with the ball, some of the passes are just better options, some are just flashy, but he looks at passes as valuable as points. I'll take his 3D ball playing over the 3-point ball game any day.

This man’s highlight reel is gonna be insane

Lemelo just looks like he's just out there having fun

Being the younger brother helped him out a lot. Always a challenge now he’s better then both his brothers.

2:45, my man really said "HUMDIDDLYDEE"

This kid just makes me want to pick up a ball again

The Ball-Bridges relationship is absolutely beautiful

10% LaMelo plays 90% Commentators' reactions 🔥

5:11 big ups to isaiah stewart, keeping a hand on him as he went down and helping him up.

I want him to recreate his point at half court shot. It would either be legendary or a meme

Lamelo's full court passing is incredible...you can see he had that skill when he was like 15 and in high school. I'd tell my brother he could make passes nba guards can't make. Obviously he does a lot of stuff a lot of other guards can't do, even good ones.

I'm rooting for LaMelo to be the next "GOAT".. I wanna see rings, season MVP's, all star MVP's, all that... Such an exciting player with tons of potential.

He’s not playing just to win, he’s playing to put on a show and have fun. Love this guy.

I need announcers like this for my daily activities

Imagine having Melo and Zion on the same team! Those alley-oops would be wild!!

court vision is crazy for being so young, lamelo gon be the greatest to ever do it.

Joy, joy, joy, thrilling, creative, prodigious, team oriented, entertaining, real basketball! Carry on LaMello!

I just love his playstyle, it just looks like he’s having fun all the time

His handles are way underrated

i feel like a proud father watching these kids grow up and mature into the ball players they are becoming. all solid balls.

LaMelo is so smooth he looks like slow motion, but opponents can't keep up.

The crazy part is that we all watched him grow up doing these same moves, and he still catches them. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I went to Charlotte to see the Sixers play the Hornets, and LaMelo did not play that night, but before the game, they worked him out. It was JUST a workout, but his shooting and handles were off-the-charts. Just amazing! I love the modern game.

This truly shows you that Melo was ALWAYS that kid growing up playing with the way older kids.. and he always held his own, same as today!

"Stroke it with size!" -Mark Jackson

I just hope he keeps playing with freedom as he does. It's never always going to pay off but the entertainment is the best in the nba. Thank you Mr Ball Sack.

This guy is Brilliant.. Definitely an All Star 💯

He’s definitely a lot of fun to watch! Love the video!

This guy is actually PLAYING. Everyone else too stiff and serious. Great to watch.

2:18😂😂😂 commentary hits ever time

After 2 minutes I saw all I needed to see. Legendary.

Pure talent and desire

LaMelo + Hornets commentators == Godlike!

Lamelo passing and dribbling is just insane plus he can score

His energy level is 2x anybody else on the court, and 10x a lot of them. And what an incredible handle, laser-like passes... some violent poetry in motion!

This kid is crazy good the passing shooting dribbles I mean he does it all for real. A real point guard

He just too smooth wit it maaan

Watching him in high school was crazy! Then Australia was good route he went! Amazing perfect passing! Deserved a nba ring one day!

Just having fun out there, bet them guys love having the youngin on the squad. Melo can blay all around and definitely is a play maker forsure. Hard to find players out there anymore that are just happy to be there and be part of the team💪

Lamelo.. GOTT ITTTEGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!! 6:13

Omg lamelo is such an amazing player why it seem like nobody talks about him that much. Hes the most exciting player too watch so much style, and skill and is a true team player.. it really shows how happy he is too just play basketball he respects the game more then most of these players and it shows hes electrifying and just absolutely brilliant too watch.. 👏 👍

legend..

The energy difference between the home and away clips is astounding

His quick passes are like bullets fired

Keep them coming! DeAaron Fox next please!

You can tell just by watching him play, he passes the vibe audit. Creative, open-minded, and with joy.

bro just having fun and making the most of his opportunity. that's so cool man

If he can stay healthy, elevate his game from this to even something more special, there is no doubt he will be one the best marketed players ever in the NBA. He's too fun to watch for people not want to throw their money at the franchise he plays for.

Can we also admire the Hornets court designs? Simply beautiful

I remember watching And1 videos for hours 15 yrs ago. This guy brings nostalgia

these are made 1000x better simply by the fact that eric collins loves basketball so much and is so passionate with his calling

Hopefully Bridges can get back on the court, but doesn't look likely. That duo was about to be something special ⛽🔥😤

6:25 cleanest step back ever🥵

Warms my heart seeing melo in the nba

remember young street ball clips from the brothers back in the day, love to see him keep his style

I like how it doesn’t seem like he had to change his game if anything he just perfected it. He’s just too crafty. A lotta his decision making just seems so natural. I love the chemistry the hornets have with him, pj, miles, and I know it’s gonna happen eventually but I hope they don’t break up this young core . Even tho I do see him fitting into a few other teams systems just as well.

That boy is a ankle breakin, buzzer beatin, alley-oopin, slick, long, behind the back passin, shakin n bakin, hesitatin, air hangin, 3-point shootin, razzle dazzlin, reverse lay-uppin, ball handlin fool! Fast too! Did I miss anything?

Lavar must be so proud of all his sons he raised, he raised them to be successful. It’s a shame that not every kid in this planet has a real dad like Lavar.

He's only been here 3 years and he has so many amazing highlights

Craziest highlight tape in the league. If he finds some consistency and better teammates they’ll go far.

He’s gon be one of the greats

Looks like he's dropping dimes and making incredible shots. That's a rare combo playing street ball.

LaMelo and Doncic reviving the NBA.

3:53 melo over dbook any day🥶🥶

Damn! imagine him doing this in NY or LA! The media hype will be crazy!

He's going to change the game. This new era of hoopers who've been making highlights since high school...it's going to be fun to watch

I remember sophmore year of hs there was a trio of brothers goin crazy in cali and its so crazy now seeing the one that was literally in my grade have montages of himself against the best players in the world

“Desssiiiiiiiiiiiiireeeeee he just wanted it !”

gotta love melo. I hope he continues to grow. would love to see him in an mvp race one day

Glad to see dude actually balling against all odds🙌🙌

Man alive! As far as I can see, Lamelo is easily the best of all the Ball brothers. Impressive.

We need more streetball style in the NBA

this makes me want to watch him live! what a beast!

Melooo💪🏽🏀🏀

That left to right crossover with the left hand scoop layup from the right side 🥶

Stroke it with size??? 🤨📸 what do you mean by that

so happy he keeps getting better

This kid is so gifted he’s the best of the ball bros. Very talented

Very nice ball handling.He brings his own class into the game. -LaBall-

This is one of the best NBA reels I've seen and he's still so young

Man lavar did his thing for his sons. We need to put more ppl like him in the spotlight

Didn't know he had skills like this. DAMN!

You can see the way he smiles that this is a kids dream and he is living it now.

He’s playing like the era I grew up on. Actual sauce
