Lonzo Ball Would Rather Be a Laker Than No. 1 Pick

Lonzo Ball desperately wants to be clad in Purple and Gold next season.

So much so, that the Cali native says he’d rather be a Los Angeles Laker than get picked first overall in the NBA Draft this summer.

The Lakers are tanking—with varying degrees of success—and currently own the League’s third-worst record with four games to go.

Per ESPN:

“I’m going to go with the Lakers.

 

“All my family is in L.A., so to be able to play in front of them, I think that would mean more to me.”
