LiAngelo Ball may no longer play with Hornets’ G League affiliate

LiAngelo Ball, the middle brother of Lonzo and LaMelo, is now reportedly eligible to be selected in the NBA G League draft on Saturday, according to Jonathan Givony of ESPN.

Ball signed last week with the Charlotte Hornets, and was waived by the team the following day. The signing ensured the Hornets would retain his rights and could assign him to their G League affiliate, the Greensboro Swarm.

However, according to the report, the Swarm no longer hold his rights in the G League because an apparent procedural issue will prevent him from being an affiliate player.
