Phoenix Suns GM Ryan McDonough told ESPN's Jeff Goodman on Thursday that LaVar Ball's comments won't have an impact on the draft stock of his son, former UCLA point guard Lonzo Ball.
Goodman asked McDonough at the NBA combine if the father's behavior would prevent Phoenix from drafting the son.
McDonough responded (via CBS Sports):
"Not really, no. We evaluate the player first and foremost. Every player comes from a different family situation. It seems like LaVar has been extremely involved in Lonzo's career and obviously he's a polarizing guy.
