CLEVELAND, Ohio — You’re Lonzo Ball. You stand in front of the media at the Cavaliers’ practice facility. You are quiet and thoughtful. You’re excited to be with a new team, a good team. You are hopeful you can stay healthy.

After a recent trade, Lonzo Ball knows he and his Cavs teammates have plenty of work to get done. "We should all be focused on getting to a ring."

Chicago and Cleveland agreed to the trade for Lonzo Ball on June 28, but it didn’t become official until the start of the new league year.
