This would be a great bet to make considering that one of the most reliable sources in Bleacher Report is backing up Melo being taken first overall.
Something else that backs up LaMelo’s odds on online sportsbooks is that he actually has an advantage over the rest of the prospects – he has been playing professionally since 2017 when he played in Lithuania.
Ball continued to play professionally as he played in Australia for arguably the toughest league outside of the NBA (the NBL) where he averaged 17 ppg, 7.6 rpg and 6.8 apg.
Not to take anything away from Anthony Edwards and James Wiseman as bettors can certainly take the chance and bet on them as well, but with Ball having the latest mock draft backing up his odds, bettors would be met with a decent payout here for a player that deserves the top spot.
