No matter how well Lonzo Ball plays for the New Orleans Pelicans, the trade rumors just won’t seem to die.
Even though he has shown he can be effective with Zion Williamson and has professed his desire to play together long term, the rumor mill has continued to do its thing.
This wasn’t helped by LaVar Ball, Lonzo’s outspoken and quite frankly, silly, father, who poured more gasoline on the fire by claiming that Lonzo needs to be traded out of New Orleans to a team that will better use his skillset.
