LaVar Ball says his sons Lonzo and LaMelo are injured because of the Bulls' and Hornets' 'rooty-toot workouts,' and, in LaMelo’s case, his 'raggedy shoes.'
Chicago Bulls point guard Lonzo Ball hasn't played an NBA game in more than two years because of a left knee injury that has required three surgeries. Youngest brother LaMelo Ball was an All-Star in his second season with the Charlotte Hornets but has only played a total of 58 games in the two seasons since because of multiple ankle injuries.
'You've got to condition your legs,' LaVar Ball, who also did not reply to a message from The Times, told CBS Sports. 'So that's why I always have my boys in them hills and running hard in them hills. That will make you run like a deer when you get on that court, so you won't be getting hurt.' Ball also feels the sneakers worn by LaMelo, 22, who has a shoe deal with Puma, as partially responsible for his youngest son's injuries.
