Ball had 34 points (10-20 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 10-10 FT), eight rebounds, 11 assists, one block and one steal over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 win over the Rockets.

Ball looked every bit the superstar, carrying the Hornets to an impressive road victory in the season opener. Often talked about for all the wrong reasons, Ball will be looking to put his injury history behind him. Despite wearing ankle braces, he didn't appear limited at all, a welcome sight for anyone who took a chance on him in drafts. He should be an elite source of points, threes, assists and steals, while also converting at a high rate from the free-throw line.
