LaMelo Ball’s future at the Charlotte Hornets seems to be shrouded in mystery. After suffering from a left calf injury, Ball had to sit out of Friday’s clash against the New York Knicks. Despite putting up a fight, the Hornets lost the game by just a point. The 99-98 loss meant that the Hornets have lost four games back-to-back now. And this is something that LaMelo’s father is seemingly not okay with.
Coming live on the ‘Big Baller Brand’ Instagram page, LaVar Ball dropped in a huge surprise announcement. “You know we need that guy… Don’t worry about it help is coming. Help is coming,” LaMelo’s father stated. While he did not mention who he was referring to, fans quickly reached their own conclusions. They opined that the “help” LaVar was speaking of was Lonzo Ball.

While it is not confirmed, the addition of Lonzo Ball will surely strengthen the squad. After all, Ball has been in fantastic form. He has scored more than 30 points in each of the last four games. He also had a career-high 50 points against the Milwaukee Bucks. As soon as the announcement went viral, fans put on their speculative hats.
