After going undrafted in the NBA draft on Thursday, Liangelo Ball was informed that he wasn't invited to play in the Lakers' summer league team, according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
Shelburne tweeted, "Lakers officially informed LiAngelo Ball he will not be on their Summer League team last night. They were determined to make this a basketball decision but as one source put it, “obviously there’s more to it than basketball.” In other words— the LaVar effect was real."
LaVar spoke about the situation, and he still believes LiAngelo will make it in the NBA. He told TMZ, "He'll come in the back door as a free agent. Somebody will take all 3 of my boys and whoever do, guess what — championship."
