John smith they did score like 123 they just couldn't defend themselves. Honestly I don't think any high school game should score that much that means neither team is playing d
LeBron won't be in the NBA by the time he makes it. But if he was, he would tear him up. Sorry to say but LaMelo looks really good when compared to high schoolers. If he dosen't change up how he plays gains some muscle and learns how to play D. He's going to have a tough time in college let alone the NBA.
he doesnt even play d, lebron would slide above him and use his face as a sleigh bruh, whatu talking, get some fkn knowledge about things before you start talking about em
Zeke Rodriguez he wanted to dedicate it to someone so how was he going to score lots of points if he was to play d he would score like 45 if he was playing defense
EJeezy530 Because of who they were playing, and the bench was getting the chance to shine. They hardly ever get to play, ever, he 15 why you gotta bring up the NBA cause he doing good in life lmao.
They said the same thing about Lonzo and you're right - he's not going to do that in college. But lets not act like Lonzo is a scrub and like LaMelo will be.
Niggas like you is just hater i swesr to God. This nigga jus scored 92 and y'all still gon hate wtf does he have to do score 150 to get some respect from yall god damn😂😂
I can't believe people are calling this dude the next Steph curry. This was the most overrated performance I've ever seen. He never even attempted defense. This is purely disgusting. Smh
EVERYTHING ! ! He’s a ball hog anyways. Plays no defense. His brother got pushed onto the lakers by his dad’s bitchiness and he sucks anyways. This whole family was breeding kids for basketball. Forcing it on to them. I’d rather see them all fail in the nba so the dad sees how it rlly works. Kobe didn’t get drafted from high school for cherry picking a half-effort layup.
Comment didn't age well at all ! lmao He's in the nba now, 3rd pick for the hornets. Delete this comment as it is filled with pure stupidity and second hand embarrassment, lmao dumbass girl you should be listening to K POP not trying to judge on a basketball video.
lmao, he just cherry picks..plays no defense at all fml...gonna get exposed defensively in college as none of his teammates will give him that special treatment as well. he isn't bad and deserves his ranking but when he goes to a higher level, people will be looking at defense. there are many examples of top scorers in the ncaa not making the draft because that's all they did
ProbablyThe1 it's the way they play...outscore the opponent simple as that. Not much defense involved. When a college coach pushes him I wouldn't doubt he can be a good defender. not lock down but capable.
Not hating at all...92 points is 92 points but this is the worse show of defense I've ever seen in an officiated game...he barely crossed the half court line on defense from what I can see...he makes harden look like an all defensive first teamer....I would've undercut him honestly...u gotta have pride and not Let anyone do u like this...I wish him good luck regardless
sysda1 this video only shows chino ofense, if you watch ball is lifes video you see he across the halfline many times, but he is playing like liangelo, and no one says nothing about him
He's still not crossing half court several times. He cherry picked half of his points. It's lousy D and there's no excuse. This isn't a highlight. This is embarrassing.
i literally counted all the points cause i couldn't believe it. Unless they forgot to put in a bunch of free throws, then I'm wrong. But if not i also counted 86 points.
Lol thats funny but real talk, but proud of that. 19 is good. I didnt play basketball in high school but I went to games and most of the games ended like 55-60 or something like that. If you had 19, you definitely had to be good.
His Team was so good they played the whole game with 4 on D and one on outlets... I know slow centers that hustled down the floor on Defense and still made it back to get buckets in traffic. What coach sees this and doesn't think LAZY???!!
1. I laughed almost every time he didn't make it passed halfcourt. 2. He was doing the Liangelo all game. 3. Doesn't matter what competition you play against. that many points is still impressive. 4. I disagree with him playing the 4th Quarter. coach has to grow a pair and be a real coach. if he gets injured. then what? 5. you know he's cherry picking. as an opposing coach, y tf haven't you adjusted?
Corey Singleton Concerning your 4th point, their coach clearly doesn't care about the bench he just wants to help his stars develop and the more playing time they get the better they get, even though it means that bench players play 2 minutes/game.
Simon that's not true and it's not smart. if he really cared about his players getting better. he'd teach them to take better shots and for the ball brothers to actual play defense. this is the 1st time I've seen lamelo basket hanging, but his brother does it really often. Melo doesn't even know how to box out and he's 6'2. the coach clearly doesn't care about his players. and their development. if he did. a sophomore playing so many mins on SENIOR NIGHT in a MEANINGLESS game. is insane. he's not getting better by dropping 92 on scrubs. he should've only played the 1st half. or 1st and 3rd. all 4 quarters was not necessary, his coach kept him in so he can go for a record. that's b.s.. but don't get me wrong as a lamelo fan. I loved seeing him going for 92. but as a basketball fan, I know their coach ain't shit
Rex Stevenson you being a troll or nah? because he is at risked of getting injured. self inflicted or by a defender mad af because of the blowout or about the fact he scored over 50pts b4 the 4th. no good coach would let his stars play this team longer than a quarter. this was a great game and opportunity to play and develop his bench. but he didn't he let them play until the very end.
I said it once and I'll say it again. This kid will be a major bust. This 92 point game was not impressive in the slightest. Not playing any defense, cherry picking layups, it's ugly basketball. He can't get away with this in college, let alone the NBA. I almost puked when I saw his half court pull up 3, because that is an awful shot, good for him that it went in. This is worse. This kid needs to understand that college is not like high school, and that he will actually have to play basketball, rather than playing like it's a glorified shoot around.
Hark Infinite I agree on some point you made. His brother has one of the ugliest shots as well and he's probably going top 3 in draft. He plays defense on point guards that watch the ball go in the basket meanwhile he releases as soon as the ball goes up whether in or out.
Hark Infinite man you seen his older brother he play for ucla what make you think lamelo would be any diffrent? and hes a sophmore of course hes going to have fun.
Hark Infinite You say it as many times as you want. Judge him on one game and you're a fool. This kid is a stud and you just whine about him playing the style ALL OF CALIFORNIA PLAYS. All the teams there play like this, he is just way better at it than all of them. smh shut yo trap before you get crossed.
LaMelo Ball dedicated this game to Lexi Anderson who is currently in the ER after being found unconscious by her parents at home. CPR revived her but she is now in critical condition in the ER and in need of a heart transplant. Very tough time for their family and they are asking for any donations or help they can receive. If you care to donate use this link www.gofundme.com/lexianderson
🤣🤣 What he’s doing isn’t easy tho. Even the plays he’s not cherry pickin he’s slicing and dicing the defense and can’t be stopped either way. He literally played a full game and put up 92 points, he’s human and fatigue plays a part. No matter what he couldn’t be stopped. Last shot he was triple teamed and still couldn’t be stopped. This kid is the next great player, everyone is just late to the party
Pema G Reacts they scored 123 points. i mean that's pretty good. i know that melo wasn't playing d, but still they scored 123 points against chino hills. that's pretty good.
I would've been pissed if he dedicated this game to me. You're supposed to put your all for them, not be lazy as fuck and fill the stat sheet. Look at when NBA players play for someone. They fight until the very end. This is a disgrace
Rex Stevenson buckets cherry picking. I'd be mad af too if someone dedicated a game to me and didn't play their heart out. Lmao. Respect on why he did it though, but he should've worked for it. Lol kid can ball though.
The fact that the other team just let melo do this to them is crazy... but he was definitely a lot better than his opponents because it didn’t matter if they played defense or not he was gonna score
Well tbh I don't think LaMelo Ball is the "Best" Highschool player. He doesn't really do much... He just waits for the ball and gets open layups. If you were going to do that in the real NBA that will not prove that you can actually play properly.
CityKillah138 I've been crossed/gotten my ankles broke plenty of times before but at least I try to play some defence . if I did that there's no way he'd score that much
lol and Drazen Petrovic scored 112 points against a Division 1 team in Europe. People act as if this is the best performance since Wilt Chamberlins 100 point game, which it's obviously not since half his points he just cherry picked. Honestly I could probably beat this kid 1V1, I'm 6'3 with a 6'9 wingspan so he wouldn't get shit past me, that I know for sure.
ATW ceejayy lol they list him at 6'2 with shoes, im 6'3 barefoot, probably close to 6'5 with shoes on and i have a 6'9 wingspan bro. wingspan over height is key in basketball
