Let's talk about Lonzo Ball.

The Pelicans are 13.5 points better than their opponents with Lonzo on the floor. That leads the team and puts him in the 90th percentile league-wide. Only seven guards grade higher than him
On the defensive side is where he makes his impact.
Opposing teams shoot 3.9 eFG% worse when Lonzo is on the floor, putting him in the 88th percentile in that category.

When playing the 1, Lonzo in the 97th percentile in guarding midrange shots and 95th in corner threes.
He grades in the 85th percentile in block % and 79th in steal %. His shooting numbers are down but he grades in the 93rd percentile in corner 3s (48%).

Lonzo's consistency on the offensive end can be maddening at times but there's no doubt that he is an impact player.
