LaMelo Ball Seems Unhappy In Deleted Tweet With His Dad’s Comments About Not Wanting To Play For The Warriors

LaMelo Ball is a contender to be the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft. He’s averaged 17 points, 6.8 assists and 7.6 boards per game in Australia this season. He’s also previously seemed to be more of his own man than his brother Lonzo was when he came out as their father LaVar Ball largely ran the show.

This tweet, uncovered by For The Win, indicates that LaMelo may not be the happiest with his loud dad, particularly when it comes to playing alongside Steph Curry:

LaMelo may not be a Warrior either way, but he’s going to dictate his own process rather than let his dad do it through the media.

Now if LaMelo could learn a bit less from Lonzo about how to shoot 3’s, things may be on the upswing:
