LaVar Ball is a proud father of two NBA players: Lonzo Ball and LaMelo Ball. He’s also the father of LiAngelo Ball, who is a free agent and a musician.

“So the Clippers, bring them God dang Ball boys home and let’s go get this championship and quit messing around. All you fans who want a championship back in L.A., yes, a whole new arena with the Ball boys.
“Who ain’t gonna come watch that show? If you want a championship, (Steve) Ballmer, I’m talking to you. Go get them Ball boys and let’s ball.”

The Ball brothers
As mentioned, two of LaVar’s sons play in the NBA. Lonzo was the first to make the NBA in 2017, when the Los Angeles Lakers selected him second overall.
So far during his eight-year career, Lonzo has dealt with serious injuries. He has only played an average of about 36 games per season.
This includes missing all of the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons. Lonzo is currently a member of the Chicago Bulls, but that may change in the near future.
LaMelo has played five seasons, all for the Charlotte Hornets. He’s also dealt with unfortunate injuries, limiting him to an average of about 46 games played per year.
Liangelo has yet to play in an NBA game. He’s made a few rosters and even dropped 26 points while making six three-pointers for the Greensboro Swarm of the G League.
It would be a nice touch to see all three Ball brothers on the Los Angeles Clippers. This decision ultimately resides with Steve Ballmer, and as of now, it seems highly unlikely.
