It’s been a while since we heard LaVar Ball say anything nonsensical.

Well, here ya go.
LaVar Ball on his big plan how he’s going to bring Lonzo, Melo and Gelo to one NBA team: “Lonzo will be on his 3rd year and I want let every NBA team know, that Lonzo is not going to resign with the Lakers, but will go to any team, that will take all of my three boys.” pic.twitter.com/GErdXjraYU

The first thing that should be pointed out here is that most of what LaVar says here is, you know, impossible. LiAngelo Ball will have to first enter the draft and, if he doesn’t get drafted, then he’ll have the freedom to do as his dad says. Same goes for LaMelo Ball when that time comes.
But hey, other than that, the master plan is off and running!
LaVar’s plan obviously isn’t worth taking seriously at all, but the one hypothetical he brings up that is worth discussing is Lonzo’s part in all this.
To this point, Lonzo has shied away from anything that might come off as contradictory to his dad, even when the target was his coach, Luke Walton. So, with that as some context, it’s somewhat fair to wonder whether he would draw the line at acting on his dad’s insane talking points.
All of this is moot until the time comes for Lonzo to make this decision or it’s brought up as a hypothetical to him and he has the opportunity to distance himself from LaVar’s craziness.
