Lonzo Ball Considering Meeting With Other Lottery Teams 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Jun 16, 2017 3:20 pm

With the Los Angeles Lakers not certain of taking Lonzo Ball at No. 2, he is considering talking to other teams in the lottery.


Ball will have a second workout for the Lakers on Friday. Ball is hoping to give the Lakers an up-close look at his training regimen and work ethic.


The Lakers are also considering Markelle Fultz, Josh Jackson and De'Aaron Fox at No. 2.


The Lakers are unlikely to trade out of the No. 2 slot.

Lavar already told all the other teams not to bother. This is what you get when you put all your eggs into one basket. Just the first of many life lessons the Ball family will learn at Lonzo's expense.

The key is who else lal is considering. Since its the three top prospects on everyone's list it means they have no clue and that means it's still Ball. They're just doing due diligence but the bottom line is which lottery can change the culture,,, and that's still Ball

My favorite part of this is that even if the Lakers do take Ball, they're forcing him and his family to be more humble instead of just spewing out garbage about how they're going to take over L.A. and stuff.
