LaVar Ball says LeBron James would be better with Lonzo
By Tre LyDay
Lavar Ball is back, and better than ever. This time he is saying crazy things about LeBron James pairing up with Lonzo Ball.
The Los Angeles Lakers, nor the NBA for that matter, have heard much from the head honcho of Big Baller Brand. Mostly because LaVar Ball has been busy with his other two sons in Lithuania, and becoming somewhat of a celebrity over there.
With All-Star weekend in Los Angeles and all the cameras pointed at whoever has the loudest mouth, the festivities were the perfect opportunity for Ball to make a guest appearance.
Queue Jim Ross’ voice of shock… BAH GAWD, that’s Lavar Ball’s music!
Ball went bold from the jump and told TMZ that LeBron James, yes that LeBron James, would become a better basketball player with Lonzo Ball in Los Angeles. Ball Sr. has said some pretty outlandish things in the past, like guaranteeing the Lakers would make the playoffs this season and that he could beat Michael Jordan in one-on-one. Let’s not forget when he said Lonzo is better than Steph Curry (jury’s still out on that one).
This one takes the cake though.
LaVar also said James was joining the Lakers this summer and the speculation wasn’t just a rumor. Obviously, the public trusts Ball as far as they can throw him, but if he speaks this into existence then that would be something.

This is King James we’re talking about though, the best player on the face of this planet. The very same guy who’s been to seven straight NBA Finals, and is probably going to an eighth one this season. How could Lonzo Ball possibly make him better at the game of basketball?
No one knows how Ball could make James better, but fans might be all in on finding out if he actually can. The best part about this whole thing is Magic Johnson can’t get fined for tampering this time.
