"They're already friends off the court and I think LaMelo would be very excited to have a guy like Scoot"

Scoot Henderson (0) and LaMelo Ball (2) were first known to have met at the Rising Stars where they both played for "Team Payton" in 2022. Since then, Scoot Henderson has gone on to sign with Puma who also has LaMelo Ball as one of their major stars. It seems that they have stayed in touch with each other over the course of the last year and have an existing relationship.

In a recent interview with SLAM, Scoot Henderson also revealed some off-court passions and interests which look to chime with LaMelo Ball (See Below)

Interesting to see reference LaMelo Ball in this article (among others) as an impact rookie he will try to emulate.

He also has a passion for fashion and enjoys watching Rick and Morty, sounds like he shares some passions with another popular Hornet. https://t.co/OESeqzHiT1
