A day after being selected by his hometown Los Angeles Lakers as the second overall pick in Thursday's NBA Draft, point guard Lonzo Ball tossed out the first pitch for Magic Johnson‘s Los Angeles Dodgers, wearing a No. 2 customized jersey.
Much like his basketball shooting form, the 6-foot-6 floor general sported an equally unorthodox throwing motion, but was still caught effortlessly by closer Kenley Jansen, who sported Johnson's retro Lakers jersey.

Getting some practice throws before the big moment.

Despite the weird mechanics, at least it got to the plate, unlike fellow draftee Josh Jackson at an Arizona Diamondbacks‘ game.
