To be fair, he was hooping against Lithuanian teams. Some of those teams even played in the Euroleague if I’m not mistaken. That’s very high level

The biggest issue with Gelo is he plays like a stretch 4, but with the height of a guard. Both his brothers has agility, quickness, and creative court vision that allows them to thrive at the point. Melo is the best player out of them but if healthy, Lonzo is possibly the most valuable type player to have for any team looking to contend.

Melo was honestly just lucky he was young enough to go back to a good high school program

Lavar didn’t ruin any of them. Other than their feet/knees with those shoes. Liangelo never had the same drive that you see in Melo and Zo, he has all the skill, but not the drive.

i really hope he gets into the nba one day im really rooting for this guy

Liangelo benefited from playing in a system in high school and college where he could launch 20 threees a game with zero hesitation. He was never efficient and I knew it wouldn’t translate at the next level. THAT being said, he’s still an LA high school legend and was the co star of arguably the best high school team of all time.

He is a good player my only criticism is his shot creation was lacking but if he is not getting any minutes how can he develop when they gave him minutes he did well watch the summer league games

He was just a spot up shooter during his reign in his high school with his brothers. He was banking shots like it was nothing which unfortunately didn't carry over after that. He wasn't an all around player unlike both his brothers. I believe this might have stemmed from early development, He was propped up to be just a shooter and that's all he was.

I fell like it would be cool if you did a what if with Brandon Roy if he wasn't injured that would be cool since that Portland team was really underated

Stealing in china and then Bailing on UCLA cost him. In his development years around top prospects/coaching staff and no Lavar to me would have set him on the path to be a very late 2nd round pick. I think if he had been developed at UCLA it would have at worst got him a 2 way contract.

He should’ve just stayed in Europe. He was doing ok in the Lithuanian team. Then from their he could’ve played European teams and gotten better

If he didn’t steal the glasses bro would honestly have a genuine chance😂

All the Ball brothers were great at scoring, but the difference between them was that some of them had mastered different aspects of basketball. Zo is a great defender, Melo is a great passer, Gelo was never great at anything but offense. So if your only skill is offense, you gotta be super consistent and an insane offensive player.

some people only get to where they are because of their parents and often they can't live up to the expectations. it's just kind of embarrassing when it's showcased for the world to see.

I never seen anything on Seth. Seems like a hard working humble dude.🌹

He and his father had made numerous bad decisions, resulting in a career of drama, and a shady origin. I think he could have been far better if had made less "unique" moves.

Honestly he could play football if he gets a trainer and stays healthy. He’s only 25.

He was never an NBA level talent, even when he was on draft boards he was a late 2nd at best, slow feet, not an NBA level handle or passing vision he's basically just a jump shot which isn't good enough to make an NBA roster unless you're hitting 3's at all time levels.

you just need a good coach who would know how to him them and give them a chance just have them in the game for 10 to 14 min

if i have to choose i would go with liangelo. He has the most fighting spirit of the 3.

It's simple. The Ball family genes seem to be ideal for a certain body type and playing style. Gelo whether he knew it or not went against the grain, while Melo and Lonzo took what their genes gave them.

He needs that learn how to control his athleticism he has the strength to move defenders but his speed and his jumping needs to increase so he could rise above defenders. Someone please teach him how to play make and Defend a little better. His jump shot is good just need consistency. He needs to learn shooting drills from some nba player trainers. Send him to Memphis we’ll make him better he needs to be around people who’s not gone baby him and also make him want to be there in the right way. I understand that’s his Dad but when are you going to start thinking for yourself ? I’m pretty sure Lamelo help pull strings for the contract or scouts to look at his brother. Nothing is wrong with that but go full throttle be that dog on the court.

He played an NBA game against the Boston Celtics.

LaMelo Ball was the only player to become a star in the NBA. Lonzo and LiAngelo remained Role players.

Maybe if Melo can take his game to next level he can be the Thenasis for the Hornets.

Bro couldn’t dribble with his left hand and expected to make the league

Thanasis or Gelo. Who do you think is better?

thanasis obviously, at least he has nba size and athleticism to be a cheerleader

i made into a mike korzemba video 😮‍💨

Because he was a 2 guard that had the game of a 1980s power forward with a mediocre high volume Trey ball

God Bless Him ❤️🙏🏼

From what I heard is that UCLA only wanted his brother and their father worked in a contract for all three of them but I could be wrong

Yes…he made it a package deal.

He's not even a G League level player.

People love to give lavar credit, but at the end of the day wtf did he actually do for his kids? Lonzo went to ucla and lamelo ended up back in high school. If anything the only thing he did was potentially hurt lamelo , liangelo was a clown for stealing and never destined to get in the league

His best shot was in college but his stupid decision to try and steal something in China where he and his teammates totally blend in and in no way stick out in crowds. Still can't understand how he was picked out of a photo line-up. But I think that said way more about him than any other thing up to that point because his older brother wasn't there to lead and his younger brother he looked out for wasn't there and let's be honest his dad wasn't breathing down his throat so truly on his own with teammates he wanted to impress he made the worst decision of his life. After that he should have stayed in school and went back to UCLA and earned his way back into the UCLA tram and the American people who really didn't like him after that stupid decision. He is very lucky President Trump got them released and back out of China. After that his father absolutely destroyed any and every chance he had to ever make it and had his little brother not been young enough to go back to high school he would have also been ruined but got lucky. But everything will come back to the sideshow of his father and nobody thinks a bench player is worth the circus that comes with him. Its unfortunate but I still think he should try out for Canadian football league because he has everything needed to be a he'll of a tight end and a better shot of getting to the NFL than the NBA!

That entire story is just too much, either you're elite or you're not look at the 2018 nba combine, gelo just isn't good, there's so many talented high school players a year but only 480 out of them will be on am nba court

The JBA was the biggest waste of time

He just don’t want it bad enough.
