Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma will be playing in the Rising Stars Challenge at All-Star Weekend in Charlotte on Friday night and, as a result, he is facing a whole lot of media questioning ahead of the game.

But that's beside the point.

After Kuzma answered a question about what it would be like playing with Lonzo Ball and LaMelo Ball, Lonzo had a rather interesting comment to make:

While it's good to see Lonzo having some fun with Kuzma, it's hard not to wonder what Ball's relationship with his teammates is, largely due to his dad, LaVar Ball, constantly making controversial statements ranging from criticizing head coach Luke Walton to saying that his son is better than LeBron James.

Since entering the NBA last season, there has been more talk about the drama surrounding Ball rather than his play on the court, and that is never a good thing.

The 21-year-old, who is currently sidelined with a sprained ankle, has played in 47 games this season and is averaging 9.9 points, 5.4 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals over 30.3 minutes per game while shooting 40.6 percent from the floor, 32.9 percent from three-point range, and an abysmal 41.7 percent from the free-throw line.

Ball, who played his collegiate basketball at UCLA, was originally selected by the Lakers with the second overall pick of the 2017 NBA Draft.

He played in just 52 games during his rookie campaign due to knee issues, registering 10.2 points, 7.2 assists, 6.9 boards, and 1.7 steals across 34.2 minutes a night while making 36 percent of his field-goal attempts, 30.5 percent of his long-distance tries, and 45.1 percent of his foul shots.
