Lonzo Ball is one of the best role players in the NBA (when healthy). The former UCLA star returned to action (last season) after missing nearly three years due to injuries. Last week, ESPN's Shams Charania reported the news that Ball has been traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Issac Okoro.

NBA veteran Lonzo Ball has not had an easy road to recovery since a series of injuries ravaged his health. This summer, after four years with the Bulls, his career took another twist in a trade that sent him to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Despite leaving behind unfinished business in Chicago, Ball says he's looking forward to the new opportunity.

The Cavs traded for Ball because they believe in him as a winner. His playmaking and defensive skills as a 6’6” point guard will give them a new dynamic to compete with. If all goes right, Ball has a chance to complete one of the best comeback stories in sports.
