Lonzo, LaMelo, and LiAngelo talking about how they are all fathers now
I really hope Lonzo installed the carseat for Lamelo
I’d be shocked if he knew what a car seat was
“Of course I know what a car seat is! My car’s got 7 of ‘em!”
I hope they bought something with an integrated car seat, like a Volvo, and the mom or nanny is the main driver
it’s still stupid Lamelo named his son LAONE (le-1)
Edit: misspelled LaOne
At least he won’t have to think too hard about naming the second one
LaDos
El Segundo
I would not put it past him to name his second child Segundo Ball
That’s an incredible name, tbh
LaTres
LaTres Leches Ball
LaTrepleBs
That’s where I left my wallet!
LaDeuce
“Sorry, running late. I have to drop LaDeuce off at the pool”
LaBrown?
LaDeuce & LaMo
LaTre better be good from behind the arc.
Not to be confused with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GLaDOS
LaSecondOne
for years ive thought lonzo is just short for alonzo lol
LaOneTwo
Could call him Spare like The Heir and The Spare. 🤷♀️
Latto?
All their names are pretty stupid.
Lonzo isn’t a terrible name
Neither is LaMelo. What makes it worse than Carmelo? Even Liangelo isn’t that bad so i don’t really see the problem.
Honestly I don’t think LiAngelo is that bad either?
I think the Li brought it down a bit
I thought it was a stupid name but didn’t understand why everybody was ragging on him so hard for it until I read it with the last name a few weeks ago.
It’s a Hemingway homage
LaMingway*
He’s just a Ginobili fan
The other, is in the Albert Hall!
LeOne Ball
Diamonds from Sierra LeOne
Should’ve been lethree
LeThree for three!!
LaThree Ball goes hard
Yo what?
LaOne cuz he’s gonna be a number 1 pick
Narcissistic parent shit.
that boy gonna grow up wanting to kill his dad
Either he’s LaOne or I’m caught in the Matrix…
LiAngelo looks like bizzaro Tatum
LaMelo* and yeah lmao I couldn’t remember who I was thinking of when I saw him but you nailed it.
Shit that’s Melo lmao. When was the last time dude had the cut that short? I don’t recognize him at all without that hair
What getting traded did to mf
Minnesota might change this man
Cutting off all your hair moving from NC to Minnesota is crazy bro the cold lmao
thats what im saying man
Minnesota is going to change him
did it when the offseason started, when he was still a Hornet
Didn’t even clock that was him, whoops
LaTatum*
One v Deuce to decide who’s the real Tatum
Deuce gonna be a vet by the time One hits the league
Galarian Tatum
bubble tatum choppelganger
Did they say that he has two girlfriends at the same time? I might of misheard .
When I get in my 60s, I’m starting a podcast and just congratulating myself on regular shit for 2 hrs every week.
Why wait? Start now
“Ayo, self…I remember 10 year ago when you didn’t have insurance….now look at’chyou….used-to-not-have-insurance-lookin’-ass….you got insurance. You got it, maw boeh…”
I would watch you the same amount I watch their podcast
Tbf to Lavar he really set out to have 3 sons in the NBA and came that close to achieving it. And it’s not like Gelo isn’t successful in his own right either. I’d do the same shit he’s doing, no doubt about it lmao he’s prolly getting paid decently to do it too
I know, it’s all in good fun. I’ve grown to respect his hustle over the years, we all get older.
I MIGHT SWERVE BEND THAT COFNER WOAH WOAH WOAH
It’s all kids trying to joke. If you’re older than 16 or have kids, this is a really dope moment man.
Yeah Lavar is stilted and “on” since there’s cameras but it’s still cool and genuine
Well that’s super lame of you
Better than explaining how people have to pay taxes
who is the audience for this?
This sub eats this slop up
We’re full on in the off season, but it ain’t even the peak.
I don’t get it either, but Lonzo has over 17 million Instagram followers, 5th most in the league
Lamelo has 10 mil followers and even Liangelo has 3 mil followers despite never playing in the NBA.
The ball brothers are very popular.
Gelo has a rap career.
Gelo has a rap song*
He has a full blown album. Not bad.
Rape*
Thats shocking, I would think LaMelo would have the most. He seems to be the most popular amongst the Gen Z and younger crowd especially with his Puma deals
Lonzo was the “chosen one”, “better than Curry” and drafted to the Lakers
Funny now that I think about it, I remember how his dad started the Junior league (JBA) that LaMelo was on. They used the same exact Jerry West logo but made it Lonzo instead lol
Lonzo was peak Ball bros mania. And he got drafted to the Lakers too
People that follow the Ball brothers and their journeys since being one of the best high school basketball stories of all time
People forget they took over high school basketball for a couple years. Went around the nation and beat up on all of the best high schools.
That was a lot of people who got to see it, will remember the name and click one it to view once and awhile.
I mean, isn’t that why you’re commenting on this post and clicked it. Because you saw and knew the name?
They used to have a show bro
If they posted the pod straight to the sub it’d be huge here
This sub, it would appear
our dumbasses that keeps posting it
Reddit
This thread will have 1000 upvotes by tomorrow morning
Idk, but I will say that I’m old enough to have seen players go from treating fatherhood like a hobby towards being more active and engaged. Even if they aren’t really that involved, it’s still setting a good example.
It’s not drama so it’s not interesting.

This post is highly upvoted so… reddit?
You’re commenting in it aren’t you?
a single comment asking who the audience is for something is not enough to sustain the level of interest they have. I’m asking because it appears extremely boring.
Seems like more than one comment you have seemingly contributed to a boring topic. As people have previously mentioned, they have garnered a following from years ago and have sustained it. How is any of this even a question? There’s an audience for everything.
I didn’t say the topic of my comment was boring. I’m obviously at the moment interested in the topic of why they are so popular.
There’s an audience for everything.
What is the thing here that there is an audience for? Former high school basketball players talk generally about fatherhood while sitting on the couch?
How many of them are brothers from the same family that have all played in the NBA (liangelo in summer league)? Nobody can dictate what YOU are interested in. Clearly this is not for you. Media is oversaturated, especially podcasts, and if you legitimately cannot understand what could interest people in this when there are extremely niche podcasts that exist, i don’t know what to tell you.
Lmfaoooo man that sent me. Exactly. And literally all of their viewers need to find something better to do.
I’m not perfect with my time management, but still what I “waste” time with is infinitely more useful than this. I might procrastinate by going down a 2 hr rabbit hole on how to make a sundial or some weird shit like that. I cannot imagine spending 2 hours on this. Like that is depressing as fucking fuck.
Says the Redditor, who just watched the video, and then left a comment on it.
I think I’m allowed to be curious. I’m even a Pelicans fan and I never intentionally consumed a single piece of ball family content back then. It is as boring as I expected.
Jayson Tatum ?
Tatum being a secret Ball brother would be a great twist
What a difference 10 yrs makes
levar ball can be a lot of things but I don’t think anyone can doubt he’s a good dad. bro never had anything but the highest belief in his sons
Good god, Lamelo should not be a dad.
He doesn’t seem like a bad dude at all
Yeah,he is just dumb.And the nanny will do most of the job.
lmao
For real looks like he really freaking loves the little guy the way he was sitting there holding him. We’re all just humans at the end of the day. Good for them man. That’s all we all want out of life really.
You’re right. Repeated reckless driving is just a silly quirk. Not like it could kill anyone. And def not a conscious choice to keep on doing it.
Man what a goofy guy, love him <3
At least he’s learned from his mistakes and has a personal driver now.
https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/s/q7uUQfiwT9
But he is mentally deficient
dropping out of high school to play basketball and be essentially raised by social media will do that to you.
People let Reddit cloud their minds as if they know these people in real life.
Sarcasm?
Nope
He has the maturity of a middle schooler
to be fair, several, dare I say, plurality of athletes are, the Ball family just have the spotlight on them. Doesnt mean any of them are worse than the average father.
As Jaylen said, the bar is fucking low.
Most of these dudes are immature morons. Nothing will make them grow up faster than parenthood.
He’s a reckless driver. And he drives a cyber truck, so at the very least, he’s a douchebag
I mean it’s Lamelo ball are you surprised he’s a douche bag? Look at his life. Calling him a bad person though is crazy
Just gonna ignore the reckless driving?
So 80% of the country is bad. We all drive shitty including you
Pretty sure driving shitty and reckless driving are two different things
What a strange thing to say
Oklahoma, makes sense
I’m not even from your dumb country lol
What an ignorant comment
Was that your first thought watching this?
I mean it’s not wrong, finding out he’s a dad is crazy I just hope he never drives with his child in his car.
It’s a bit crazy to say someone who is a shitty driver is disqualified from having children
Does he seem like the mature type to you?
He’s 24 years old. He seems like he’s maturing
Moving the goalposts
Is it? I’m not gonna comment on what kinda dad he is but if someone intentionally drives dangerously in something that should be given as much care as a car, I’d understand bein cautious about them and a kid. Especially given the two are gonna go together at one point.
Growing up is realizing most people really shouldn’t be parents
When you drive with a clear disregard for human life then I’m gonna have concerns for someone caring for a human life.
I know they’re separate situations but the concern is there for sure
“LAMELO BALL WITH NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE!” 😩
Your concern means a lot!
Lame af to say, do better.
At least their kids will grow up in money, because these are the types of dudes who lower the human IQ pool
Lonzo seems like the smart one of the three.
Lavar is a bloody awesome father. Took all the heat, marketed the hell out of his sons, got them over $300m of NBA contracts and still maintains a super close relationship with them.
The Ball brothers earned that. But I get your point
The Ball Brothers would be working at In N Out if Lavar wasn’t their father
Likely wouldn’t be successful, but they have free will and worked hard. Lavar didn’t do that work, the kids did. Lavar guided them. They earned it though
Seeing that Lonzo was suited for leadership roles in the NBA (and iirc he was in high school, I didnt follow him in college) he comes off as the most mature brother. He also faced alot of injury adversity which probably contributed to humbling him. Cant take any of it for granted.
Racist
What a racist loser lmaoooo.
It’s GELO show some respect
Just dont drive around with your kid
I remember watching Ball in Family. Daaaaang life flies by
Lavar proud grandpa
For real thought Lamelo was holding a cabbage patch kid.
Hate Lavar all you want, but that’s a proud dad who’s had his sons backs from day 1.
Real ones remember when Chino Hills ran Mater Dei out the gym.
🫡 BBB
a lot of weird comments on a video where a dad is speaking from the heart about watching his sons become fathers.
Sons of the House of L.
I wish I had a father and brothers growing up and in adulthood. I’m an only child and didn’t have a father in my life. It can get so lonely at times. Knowing you have someone who will be there for you no matter what. I would trade a winning lottery ticket for that without question. I’m not jealous of the success LaMelo, Lonzo and LiAngelo have, but I’m definitely jealous of them growing up with a father like Lavar and the brotherhood they will always have and share! Shout out to them! 😎
Congrats to all of those children who will have a grandfather who’s a misogynistic delusional piece of shit
if it makes you feel better, gelo’s such a deadbeat his three are barely ever gonna be around lavar.
Damn I was just trying to be a dick and you want straight for the jug
Grew up watching them hoop. Regardless of the negatives, i want all them fools to succeed and be happy
Never liked them
Lol
If naturally occuring brain damage was a person it would be all of the Ball brothers and father
Lamelo looks so fucking goofy
man that is a good baby, just sitting there chilling
This the first time I have heard this man and not left thinking less of him. Kinda of sweet?
Lonzo sure has some pent up energy.
All I see on my feed is Lonzo gossiping on his podcast about the most trivial topics. I need to see him ball one more time, hopefully he has it in him.
Never seen lamelo this low energy, having kids man, it’ll kill you
Wow
done bred the black outta their families lmaooo
Lamelo should not be responsible for the wellbeing of a child
Lemelo is a father? damn, him and Ant are gunning for the father of the year award.
Boy, do I not care about their personal lives.
You would if it was drama and not a black dad being happy lmao
Fucked up that someone forced you to click on that link
Fuck they are breeding now.
Said the same when your mom gave birth
I feel bad for their mom.
They seem a little uncomfortable around him.
They still talk to their mom?
Well no shit it’s they’re mom
