LaVar Ball's concept of a new basketball league for nationally-ranked high school players that have graduated is making some noise.

But perhaps the most intriguing thing that has come out of his announcement was the comments from his son, Lonzo.

The Lakers point guard said if his father's league would have existed before he attended UCLA, he likely would've chosen to forego college altogether and join that league, per Bill Oram of the Southern California News Group.

If that league, which LaVar Ball told ESPN will pay players up to $10,000 a month, had existed a year ago, there is a good chance Lonzo would have played in it rather than go to college.

“Personally, probably,” Lonzo Ball said. “If you know you’re going to be a pick (in the NBA Draft), go ahead and get to play versus the top guys in the country and move on with your life.”

There's no telling what could've happened to Lonzo Ball had the chain of events been different. He built such buzz as one of UCLA's top players, and that's one of the main reasons why he went high in the NBA draft this past summer.

Lonzo Ball's comments may shed light on the mentality that many high school players have. If they're already that good and can make money playing basketball, why go to college at all?

It's an interesting thought. The NBA's G League already has a similar concept, but perhaps LaVar Ball wants to be the competition.
