LaMelo Ball made his Minnesota Timberwolves preseason debut in a 116-97 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, starting alongside Anthony Edwards. In 17 minutes, Ball scored 11 points, grabbed four rebounds, recorded three assists and a steal, and made two three-pointers while turning the ball over once. His efficient showing offered an early glimpse of how his playmaking and perimeter shooting could complement Edwards and ease the star’s ball-handling duties.
