LaVar Ball must be a proud father after seeing his sons - Lonzo Ball, LaMelo Ball and LiAngelo Ball - establish themselves as basketball players in different leagues. LiAngelo Ball currently spends his time as a G League practice player for the Oklahoma City Blue. Meanwhile, Lonzo Ball is under a contract with the New Orleans Pelicans until at least the 2021-22 season. The youngest - LaMelo Ball - enjoyed a stunning season in the NBA and is attracting a lot of interest from various NBA franchises which makes dad LaVar Ball extremely proud.

“If he’s over there (LaMelo) and getting my other two sons with Mark Jackson, he’s going to do the same thing he did in Golden State with my boys.”
(Via @TMZ_Sports).
In a recent interview with TMZ’s Metta World Peace and Master P, LaVar Ball stated, “LaMelo Ball would be perfect for New York. He’d be perfect. You know why I say that? Because he from New York, he’s a point guard. Please pick my son first (in the draft). If he’s over there and getting my other two sons with Mark Jackson, he’s going to do the same thing he did in Golden State with my boys.” Will we see the three 'Ball Brothers' in New York playing for the Knicks next season?
