UCLA freshman Lonzo Ball had a spectacular alley-oop dunk highlight in the Bruins' 119-80 season opener win against Pacific on Friday night.
Ball threw down the one-handed slam all over poor Tigers guard D.J. Ursery - and then stared Ursery down afterwards.
That's a heck of a way to introduce yourself to the college basketball world, not that people don't already know who he is.
Ball was a top prospect who helped lead Chino Hills to an undefeated season last year while averaging a triple-double, and he was picked 2016-17 preseason third-team All-America by USA TODAY Sports.
Fun fact: When he was named All-USA Boys Basketball Player of the Year by USA TODAY High School Sports, he said that a lot of people say he looks like Drake and that he likes to rap. So perhaps we'll be seeing some rapping from him too this season.
