Charles Lee blames himself for "headbutting" LaMelo Ball

lamello ball charles lee “I lacked attention, and I shouldn’t lack attention at any time. I thought the ball was going to go out and I was about to let it not end up in the stands, and he ran to save the ball. We had a head-on collision. You have to thank him for not yelling at me too much.”

The action may have been a joke, but it wouldn’t have made the Hornets laugh LaMelo Ball he could not return to the field to face the Pelicans and that Charlotte ended her big winning streak.

The shock was still so strong that LaMelo Ball remained on the ground for several moments before heading to the locker room to have a stitch placed above his right eye. For his part, Charles Lee… took it pretty well! Above all, he managed to stay on the bench to lead his team.

Impressive frontal collision

When he returned, the leader delivered another blow to the face, much lighter, when Jeremiah Fears let his arm drag after a feint. Everything went back to normal after that, as LaMelo Ball was able to come to his senses and regain his best level. So much so that he almost single-handedly brought the Hornets back into the game after returning from the locker room, until his equally impressive finish, such as his dunk that put Charlotte ahead early in the fourth quarter after trailing by 22 points.

In the euphoria of victory, Lonca Ball’s younger brother did not hold a grudge against his coach. “He went for the ball, me too, and our heads collided. It was unfortunate, but I’m still alive and breathing, so who cares? We won, that’s the most important thing.”

In the end, this unfortunate headbutt gave the rest of the team a big boost, motivated by the thunderous return of their leader and his hardened skull of steel. In any case, Charles Lee appreciated the attitude of the leader who is often criticized, but who performed yesterday with his 24 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.

“I love his mindset: ‘Let me get back on my feet and get back on the court'”, Charles Lee confirmed. “It just shows that he’s continuing to improve, that he’s able to take a hit like that and move on. He’s really helped our team. He’s had a great response to a stupid coach.”

Who mocked the event by running into the locker room with a helmet, to chase LaMelo Ball!
