James Dolan, you’ve got LaVar Ball on Line 1.
Ball has hatched a plan to save the Knicks as they sputter through another woeful season. After Metta World Peace brought up Mark Jackson during a TMZ roundtable, Ball said he wants the Knicks to hire Jackson and for them to draft his son LaMelo Ball first overall in the 2020 NBA Draft.
“He’d be perfect for New York,” Ball said of Jackson. “He’d be perfect. And you know why I say that, man? Because he’s from New York, he’s a point guard. Please pick my son first.
