Los Angeles Lakers Lessons from failed super team longtime rival
Look no further than the current streak of six games he's sat out.
While it is at the expense of his team losing eight games, this skid is exactly what Ball needed for his image.
Kuzma has been one of the lone bright spots for the Lakers this season.
The Lakers offense has stagnated without Ball, and his absence has been felt on the defensive end, as well.
Walton, whose Lakers now have the worst record in the Western Conference, was thankful for the support from Buss and the rest of the organization's front office. The problem is, with Ball out, Kuzma is a significantly worse player. On some days, Brandon Ingram is their best player, then Kyle Kuzma, then Julius Randle.
The Lakers desperately need their point guard to push the pace, rebound and help a slipping defense.

It will take some time to see those effects in job reports, but the White House and GOP had better hope it doesn't take too long. The central bank increased the benchmark interest rate three times a year ago and is expected to hike three more times in 2018.
Churches can now apply retroactively for disaster aid
Three small Texas churches sued FEMA Sept. 5 for access to disaster recovery funding available to other nonprofits. Similar rules are in a House measure that passed late past year and in a pending Senate bill.

It improved, as 40 investors sold MLM shares while 130 reduced holdings. 111 funds opened positions while 484 raised stakes. Most of the investors recently have been curious over the performance of The Western Union Company (NYSE:WU) stock.
Despite what the stats say, Oklahoma City Thunder's Paul George has been impressed by what he has seen by Ball so far in his National Basketball Association career.
"I'm going to feel it, but hopefully I can still get out there and play", Ball said. According to Elias Sports Bureau, Ball and Magic Johnson are the only starting rookie point guards with 13 or more rebounds in back-to-back games since the ABA-NBA merger. Ball movement has largely stagnated in the half court setting, and fast break opportunities aren't taken advantage of without Ball pushing the ball up the court. However, they have already used up 20 home games. With Ball manning the point, the Lakers usually position themselves within striking distance of teams ahead of them. When the Lakers went down big, they clearly gave up in the lopsided loss. She has been around this game for a long time. Walton said the grueling travel schedule could cause the Lakers to leave Ball in Los Angeles.
Our models project Ball for 35.0 FanDuel points in 34.8 minutes against the Hornets.
"I think Kuz just had a poor shooting night", Lakers coach Luke Walton said of the rookie who had been averaging 18.1 points per game on the season.
Los Angeles averages 27.0 three pointers per game, which ranks 19th in the league. Ball has all the tools to become an elite true point guard, a dying specimen in today's National Basketball Association.
"They've been great", Walton said about the Lakers' front office. (17 points) also made his first four shots, including three 3-pointers. And that's where Ball's real value lies. Those games were separated by a win in Houston in which Randle played only eight minutes. The similarities between Green and Ball are uncanny-Ball is averaging 10 ppg, 7.1 apg, 6.9 rpg, 1.4 spg, and 1.0 bpg while Green is averaging 10.5 ppg, 7.6 apg, 7.7 rpg, 1.5 spg, and 1.3 bpg.
