Los Angeles Lakers Not Planning to Draft Lonzo Ball
No word from LaVar Ball yet.
Alongside feuding with NBA greats and selling his Big Baller Brand, LaVar Ball has been driving the idea that the Los Angeles Lakers will draft his son Lonzo Ball. But according to rumors, the Lakers are far from sold on the former UCLA guard. Basketball reporter Jordan Schultz recently reported that the Los Angeles team is currently not planning on drafting Ball and are pretty certain about their decision. Though Lonzo averaged 14.6 points, 7.6 assists, and 6.0 rebounds per game in his recent NCAA season a string of bad press thanks to his father has been hurting his image in the basketball world. Check out the reports below and let us know what you think.

Per source, the #Lakers would pass on Lonzo Ball if #nbadraft was today. Team isn’t convinced he’s a star and remains concerned about LaVar.
