Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball missed the team's previous six games with a shoulder injury but returned Friday with flashy moves at the Staples Center.

Ball pushed the ball to the frontcourt and then switched to high gear with a quick crossover to stun Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker before exploding to the rim with a powerful slam.

Ball showed some raw emotion after the score—something we don’t often see from the 20-year-old. He's definitely excited to take the court.

The Hornets led 38-26 at the time of publication.
