Depends on the assassin. Your ball can zone but certain assassins have great gap closers and better resource costs like energy.

Survive the first arrival to lane and then return mana sustain whether it be several doran's rings, tear, or Chalice. Then get the main defensive item going if you haven't gotten a leg up on the assassin.
