Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest basketball player of all time and often the superstar all basketball players looked up to as kids. Of course, thereās an endless debate about whoās the GOAT between him andLeBron James, but thatās another story.
What we could be sure of is that itās unusual to hear someone downplaying what MJ has accomplished during his legendary career. However, it looks likeLaVar Ball had no problem in doing that to praise his son LaMelo.
LaVar is known for being proud of his kids, but this time he took it to the next level.LaMelo Ball is clearly one of the most interesting prospects in the league and his father believes heās talented enough to not need advice from the Chicago Bulls icon.
LaVar Ball downplays adviceMichael Jordan could give to LaMelo
āHow often does he seek out advice from Michael Jordan? Never!ā LaVarBall said, as quoted by AhnFire Digital. āWhat advice he gonna give him? You tell me what advice he gonna give him.
āWhen the last time he won a championship? And the game has changed. Whatās he gonna tell him?ā LaVar continued. Well, this wouldnāt be the first time one of his comments makesnoise. But his take on such a respected player is still surprising.
LaMelo is having a great season with the Charlotte Hornets regardless. In his second year in the league, the 2020 first-round pick is averaging 20 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game.
