To raise the level of difficulty in his younger brother's training, Lonzo Ball of the Los Angeles Lakers summoned his rottweilers to defend LaMelo Ball.

Check out the video below as posted by Swish Daily to see the younger Ball dribbling against three rottweilers:

The 17-year-old LaMelo will once again be playing for the Los Angeles Ballers in the Junior Basketball Association this year. Together with his brother LiAngelo, they are expected to lead the team to another title.

Last season, LaMelo averaged a ridiculous stat line of 39.6 points, 11.5 assists, and 14.5 rebounds in eight games. He also shot 40.8 percent from the field.

LaMelo is gunning for the NBA, hoping to follow in the footsteps of Lonzo. LiAngelo, who signed up for the 2018 NBA Draft but didn't get picked, is also working towards making it big. An aspirant can only sign up for the NBA Draft once in his life, so LiAngelo has to find another way to enter the NBA.

The Ball family has gained media attention over the past year, primarily due to the patriarch's gregarious attitude and controversial remarks. He seems to not shy away from giving his opinion, even if unwarranted. But be as it may, the Ball has sneakily established an empire because of this.
