LaVar Ball wants to speak his son being drafted by the New York Knicks into existence.

Basketball fans know plenty about LaVar Ball by now. The vociferous father of NBA player Lonzo Ball is back on the scene as his youngest son, LaMelo, is slated to be picked in the 2020 NBA Draft. And if it was up to his father, he would be going to the New York Knicks.
