It seems it is not all water under the bridge for this basketball dad, who seems to be still wounded by what the Los Angeles Lakers did to his son. LaVar Ball recently announced that he wouldn’t dream of his other son, NBA All-Star LaMelo Ball, joining the Lakers. However, NBA Twitter soon exploded with fans demanding that LaVar stay out of it, telling him to understand how the NBA business works.

LaVar Ball, the father to LaMelo Ball and Lonzo Ball, may be operating from the axiom of ‘all in or all out’. In 2017, Lonzo was selected by the Lakers with a second overall draft pick. Things were looking good until the Lakers eventually traded him to the New Orleans Pelicans to get Anthony Davis into their lineup. Notably, LaVar Ball did not take this decision too kindly.

On LaMelo Ball potentially joining the Lakers

There has been a lot of chatter recently that LaMelo Ball could join the Lakers. ESPN’s Ray Williams said, “When I look at LaMelo Ball, I see nothing but purple and gold“. However, LaVar quickly shut down any speculation that would tie his son to the Lakers.

But following Lonzo’s exit from the team, LaVar seemingly wants nothing to do with the Lakers anymore.
