LaVar Ball’s prophecy of all three of his sons playing in the NBA has finally been fulfilled. LiAngelo Ball followed in the footsteps of his brothers Lonzo and LaMelo Ball [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lamelo-ball] as he finally earned [https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1334228672308514824] a contract with an NBA team. While both Lonzo and LaMelo are touted to become crucial players on a championship team one day, LiAngelo’s potential remains unknown. Regardless of what they achieve in their careers, LaVar Ball has fulfilled his promise of getting all 3 of his boys to the league. But now it raises another question – Who will be the first to win an NBA title? LAVAR BALL ON WHO WILL BE THE FIRST TO WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP LaVar sat down for an interview where he detailed his thoughts on the expectations from his sons. He said, “Who’s going to win their first championship? Let me tell you this, none of them going to win a championship until they all together. “That’s when they will win a championship. I’ma tell you like this, one of them by themselves, they’re good. Two of them together they, better. Three of them together, they at their best.” Well, only time will tell if the Ball brothers will win an NBA title together. As of now, they are not even on the same team, but they might team up in the future. Moreover, the league is pretty competitive, and if they want to win an NBA ring, maybe joining forces will be the best decision for them. IS LAMELO BALL THE BEST OF THE BALL BROTHERS? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/4134c36b-2692-41da-bdb4-e6b01d687086-LaMelo_Ball_-scaled.jpeg] While Lonzo Ball was the first to enter the league, he is yet to show any signs of stardom in the NBA. At first, he was supposed to be the future superstar for the Lakers, but he was traded in a bid to acquire Anthony Davis [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/anthony-davis]. However, in LaMelo’s case, he has the keys to the franchise from Day 1. The Hornets will most likely build a team around him in the coming years. Coupling that to his already star stature before even playing a single game in the NBA. He has the potential to become the best player among the Ball brothers. What are your thoughts on LaVar Ball’s comments? Will his sons ever team up and win an NBA Championship together?

an NBA championship in the league. Check out his comments here.

LaMelo Ball is a 6'6" point guard who plays for the Charlotte Hornets. They drafted him with their third pick in the 2020 NBA Draft.

LaMelo can contribute on either side of the floor. Ball is a gifted ball-handler and almost ambidextrous in his passing ability. He is easily one of the best passers to enter the NBA in a while. LaMelo is also a great rebounder and a versatile defender.

He is a scoring threat from anywhere on the floor, including the deep three-point range. However, his efficiency as a scorer has suffered due to his poor and immature shot selection.

<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">LaMelo Ball NBA Stats</span></h2>
In his debut season in the NBA, Ball lived up to the high expectations. He played his role as both facilitator and scorer for the Hornets, averaging <a href="https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/ballla01.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">15.7 points</a>, 6.1 assists and 5.9 rebounds per game in the 2020-21 season.
<h2><span data-sheets-value="{" data-sheets-userformat="{">LaMelo Ball Charlotte Hornets</span></h2>
After being drafted with the third overall pick, LaMelo has instantly become a star at Charlotte. He was a weapon off the bench for coach James Borrego, before injuries to starters allowed him to enter the starting lineup. Becoming a starter further elevated his performances, and despite spending some time on the sidelines due to injury, he made a successful return to claim the Rookie of the Year award for the 2020-21 season. He has not only become the focal point of their offense but also the floor general. And as he develops his game, his role as a primary scoring option will also increase.

<b>Lonzo Ball 2021: Net worth, salary &amp; endorsements</b>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Lonzo Ball was born in Anaheim, California, on October 27, 1997. He attended the Chino Hills High School in California, where he won several accolades as a basketball player. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Ball graduated from high-school and was ranked as the #1 point guard in the 2016 class. He attended college at UCLA and represented the Bruins for one year. In his freshman season, Ball was named as a consensus first-team All American. </span>

Mandatory Credit: Stephen Lew-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

<span style="font-weight: 400">In 2017, the Los Angeles Lakers drafted him with the second overall pick of the 2017 NBA draft. He was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team in 2018, even though his rookie season was plagued with shoulder and knee injuries. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400"> After the 2018/19 season, he was traded to New Orleans Pelicans in a mega-deal that involved bringing Anthony Davis to the Lakers. In the next two seasons, Ball certainly showed glimpses of why he was the third overall pick in the 2017 draft as he became an incredible playmaker and improved his jump shot significantly.</span>

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-184851" src="https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Lonzo-Ball.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" />

While Ball has developed into a great point guard, the Pelicans certainly couldn't keep hold of their star guard. In the off-season, the Chicago Bulls splashed the cash and added the 23-year-old.

Set to play alongside the likes of Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan, Ball and the Bulls will hope that they can make a solid push to make it to the playoffs.

For the 2020-21 season, Ball averaged 14.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game.

His father, LaVar Ball, had released a shoe collection under his Big Baller Brand, and released the signature ZO2 Prime shoe, which Lonzo planned to wear once he joined the NBA. However, design flaws with the shoe meant that he did not sport those shoes. The shoe was replaced by the ZO2 Prime Remix. Ball now wears the Nike Kobe AD Exodus and other Kobe signature shoes, playing as a Pelican. </span>
