Lonzo Ball Ends Up In LA – And LaVar Ball Gets Interviewed Before Lonzo

I’ve heard the rumors and the whispers – I just don’t buy them.

The Los Angeles Lakers may have their reservations about Lonzo Ball right now, but when push comes to shove, and it’s time for the Lakers to make a pick, I still believe that they’re going to take Lonzo Ball with the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.

I’m not sure if Ball is the real deal, or the next franchise player, but he’s Magic’s guy. Unless Markelle Fultz somehow drops to 2, which I can’t see happening, Lonzo Ball will get his wish and be a Laker.

Also, I’d bet that LaVar Ball gets interviewed before his own son on draft night. That’s a lock.
