      Um this video is kinda dumb.......2 out of the 3 Ball brothers are in the NBA. Thats LITERALLY a 1 in 100,234,009 chance. because basketball has become international. There is no scenario that this family has endured a "tragic downfall" their family legacy is cemented....... they WON!!!

    Without their Dad hyping them, none of the press, team and scout would even bother placing them as contenders of becoming an NBA superstar. All of them at most, would just be a role player in NBA or a good bench player.

    The only guy who will stay and survive (metaphorically) is LaMelo, despite the injuries, he'll come back next season, probably better, but must be traded from the Jordan-ruled s-hole team to a solid team like the Grizzlies (replacing Temetrius Morant due to the latter's antics and probably ending his own career).
    LiAngelo is not good enough for the NBA.
    Lonzo is completely done like Brandon Roy, even though he achieved less due to earlier injuries.

    I remember in 2015, my high school
    Played Chino Hills in the finals, I of course had been out of school
    For a long time, but as a good alumni, I watched the finals on TV… I thought Lonzo was the best player on the court that night, I thought Lavar was kinda different and awkward,
    But I felt Chino Hills was in great position to win the title (they destroyed everyone the following season with lamelo joining the team) and then Lonzo fouls out, and now it’s time for LiAngelo to step up and be the man and instead he completely disappeared and they lost in double OT, and from that point on, I have not been shocked at all that LiAngelo has not made the NBA, his brothers got all the talent and he just is a few

      Lavar was most likely aware of his own and his wife's genes. He's 6'5 and his wife's like 5'11- 6'0. He knew they would produce tall children. With that being said, he probably didn't want them growing up hearing mfs asking if they played ball, they respond with no, then they get labeled as being " tall for no reason." So he tried to maximize their basketball capabilities. Sad but i feel like it's true.

      I'm curious why LiAngelo is ahead of LaMelo. Literally all of Gelo's problems began when he stole a pair of designer sunglasses from a shop in China.
      There are more than a few NBA hopefuls who did extremely stup!d sh!t like this. Many of them actually served probation or even went to prison for it.
      Almost ALL of them NEVER got a second chance. Gelo got no punishment, quit UCLA a week later, and then, got like FIVE (5) extra chances. Wait...
      1. Lithuania
      2. JBA
      3. Oklahoma City Blue
      4. Detroit Pistons
      5. Greensboro Swarm
      ...yeah, five extra chances. And now, it looks like chance #6. The NBL!
      So no, Gelo definitely competes with Lavar for the bottom of this list. Lavar only takes last place for the way he treated his own wife, the way his failed BBB brand treated Lonzo, and because so many people who would know say it was Lavar who pressured Gelo to drop out of UCLA. 🏀

    Lonzo is definitely on his way out. His marketability is trash now that he's had three major surgeries on both his knees at only 25 years old. He is clearly an injury prone player considering his very short career and age. LiAngelo was done a while ago. It must suck to be the middle child and the only one not good enough to play in the NBA. Both his older and younger brothers are in the NBA and he's playing overseas; that must be at least a little humbling. Lastly, I think LaMelo has a broght future if he can avoid the injuries. He does seem to be injury prone as well, but this one may be a fluke; time will tell. He is the overall best as far as skills go, the youngest, and has the most remaining marketability. I think he has already peaked and won't go on to be a hall of famer, but he may be able to ride out at least a decade in the NBA and have a career as a bench warmer on multiple teams at a minimum.
