In a recent interview with TMZโ€™s Metta World Peace and Master P, LaVar Ball stated, โ€œLaMelo Ball would be perfect for New York. Heโ€™d be perfect. You know why I say that? Because he from New York, heโ€™s a point guard. Please pick my son first (in the draft). If heโ€™s over there and getting my other two sons with Mark Jackson, heโ€™s going to do the same thing he did in Golden State with my boys.โ€ Will we see the three 'Ball Brothers' in New York playing for the Knicks next season?
