"I would think it was cool," Walton said. "Whether he thinks it' s cool, Zo's a tough one to figure out, so you're gonna have to ask him. But I would think it's a pretty cool record to have."

However, Ball didn't care much about it as the Lakers lost the game 98-90, giving them three straight losses on their road trip.

Ball, born in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, was selected with the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft by the Lakers and signed a four-year rookie scale contract with the Lakers this summer.

During the 2017 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, Ball was the named the league MVP after averaging 16.3 points, 9.3 assists, 7.7 rebounds, 2.5 steals, and 1.0 blocks per game. He had two triple-doubles, the first in the Summer League since 2008 and the first ever in Vegas by a rookie.

James had his eye on Ball attending a summer league game to watch him play as well as sending him a special Happy Birthday message on Twitter at that time.

Ball, who played 13 games for Lakers so far, showed out surprised energy with 29 points, 11 rebounds, and 9 assists in a 132-130 win against the Phoenix Suns on Oct. 20.

Like other achieved super stars, the rookie also has his own T.V. show, an eponymous brand that features his own signature shoe and clothing line. Enditem
