Lonzo Ball entered college with lots of hype. I wrote about his family two summers ago. And, so far, the UCLA freshman has been as good as advertised.
The 6-foot-6 point guard finished with 19 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds in Sunday night's 102-87 win over Cal State Northridge. He's now averaging 16.0 points, 8.5 assists and 8.0 rebounds for the Bruins, who are 2-0 and ranked 10th in the updated CBSSports Top 25 (and one).
