To the extent Lonzo Ball’s father, LaVar Ball, has gone in boasting about himself and his sons, some are wondering if it’s all just one giant troll job or if he’s actually this delusional.
Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell took to Twitter Tuesday to call ‘bs’ on his absurd claims, specifically one where Ball said in an interview that he could beat Michael Jordan one-on-one –
“Back in my heyday, I would kill Michael Jordan one-on-one. I would just back (Jordan) in and lift him off the ground and call a foul every time he fouls me when I do a jump hook to the right or the left,” Ball said. “He cannot stop me one-on-one. He better make every shot ’cause he can’t go around me. He’s not fast enough. And he can only make so many shots outside before I make every bucket under the rim.”
lol man, Lavar Ball really will say anything for attention…so youu can beat Michael Jordan 1 on 1 in both y’all primes man?! 😩😂 I’m done

Lavar Ball, in ’88 when youu averaged that whole 2 points a game at Washington St, Michael Jordan averaged 35 a game with the Chicago Bulls
