Watch: LaMelo Bell dazzles with between-the-legs lob off the glass to Montrezl Harrell

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball has put together quite a highlight reel during a 2021-22 season that earned him his first career All-Star honors. He added another spectacular play Thursday when he turned a steal into a dazzling alley oop to his teammate, Montrezl Harrell.

Ball, 20, jumped in front of an Orlando Magic pass and took it the other way, but rather than finish with a layup he did a between the legs lob off the glass to Harrell.

Just a few minutes later, Harrell was ejected from the game along with the Orlando Magic's Robin Lopez and Admiral Schofield following a scuffle between the two teams.

On Tuesday, Ball wowed with a spin move in transition followed by a flashy pass that found Cody Martin for an open three-pointer, but he missed badly.

Ball finished the 128-101 win against the Magic with 26 points, nine assists, eight rebounds, and four steals. Charlotte improved to 41-39 and have already clinched a spot in the NBA Play-In Tournament.
