Signed and traded by the New Orleans Hornets, Lonzo Ball agreed to a four-year, $85 million contract with the Chicago Bulls on Monday. It might be tempting to take this as something of a formality -- a former No. 2 overall pick striking it rich coming off his rookie deal. But Ball had to earn this. He had to change his shot, his whole game in fact, and he had to do it with a bullet-biting humility that would seemingly bury a player who entered the league on a runaway hype train.
