It's Big Baller time in the Bayou.

Like the rest of us, Lonzo Ball found out he was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans via Twitter. For the third-year point guard out of UCLA, however, he was driving to watch brother LaMelo participate in the Drew League.

Via ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk:

“I was kind of excited, honestly,” Ball told ESPN of his first reaction to the trade, after filming Saturday for the PUBG Mobile Team Up Superstar Showdown event. “I kind of figured someone was going to get moved soon enough. I knew Anthony Davis wanted to come bad. Anytime you can get a guy like that, you are going to have to do what you have to do to get him. So I was kind of already just waiting for it, honestly, and I was happy to go with two guys I am comfortable with in B.I. [Brandon Ingram] and JHart [Josh Hart]. I am excited to see what we can do.

Ball, along with Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and multiple first-round picks were sent to New Orleans by the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for All-Star big man Anthony Davis, who the Lakers introduced on Saturday in a press conference.

Ball had an up-and-down tenure in LA — on and off the court. His father, LaVar, has taken a shining toward making media appearances, and Lonzo is suing Big Baller Brand co-founder Alan Foster for mishandling funds.

On the hardwood, Ball had a tough time handling LeBron James' arrival, averaging 9.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game in only 47 contests during his sophomore season, shooting 40.6% from the field, 32.9% from deep, and 41.7% from the free throw line.

Despite Ball's excitement to play in New Orleans with his former Lakers teammates and first overall pick Zion Williamson, the 21-year-old still has work to do to be a complete NBA player.
