Watch: LaMelo Ball finds Miles Bridges for cross-court alley oop

LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges are already possibly the most exciting duo in the NBA.

The young pairing linked up for yet another highlight reel moment early in the Hornets' game against the Pacers on Wednesday night, adding to their already-extensive bank of thrilling connections.

After receiving the inbound pass following an Indiana bucket, Ball took just one dribble before firing off a lob toward the basket from more than halfway across the court.

Once the ball had sailed over almost everyone else on the floor's heads, Bridges jumped up off two feet to reel in the pass like an NFL wide receiver. Freezing in the air, he threw it down to extend Charlotte's early lead.

Ball entered Wednesday averaging 19.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 7.6 assists per game in his sophomore season. Bridges is in the midst of a breakout fourth season, averaging 20.1 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per contest.
