Lonzo Ball’s career is in jeopardy after the Chicago Bulls star went through his third knee surgery on March 20. The Chicago Bulls could soon be thinking of playing without Ball in the squad as he is suspected of never stepping foot on the court again. You heard that right; despite undergoing three surgeries to address the problem, there has been no noticeable improvement. But Ball recently made certain statements that make fans believe LaVar Ball is the one to blame.
While on a podcast, Ball spoke about the terrible state of the shoes produced by his dad, LaVar Ball. While talking about the Triple B’s, a shoe produced by the Big Baller Brand, Lonzo gave out some essential details.
“No one knows the real story about them shoes bro. Them ZO2s I was playing in, they was not ready. No one knows this, but D-Mo (Ball’s manager Darren Moore) had a backpack, and he had like an extra four pairs of shoes in there because I had to switch them every quarter because they would just rip.”

LaVar’s strategies for marketing the brand included the success of his sons. While they played basketball, each second of their time on the court contributed to the success of the BBB.
After Lonzo admitted that the shoes weren’t ready, yet he still played with them, fans are now fuming. According to the fans, LaVar Ball is the one to blame for Lonzo’s injuries and a threat to his career as he made Lonzo wear those shoes.
