LiAngelo Ball, who signed up for the 2018 NBA Draft, is already working out with a number of teams. With him showing off his talent recently for the Los Angeles Lakers, he sought advice from his brother Lonzo, a top prospect back in college who's now proving his worth in the pros.
As reported by Ryan Ward of ClutchPoints, the younger Ball shared what his brother told him:
“He didn't tell me too much. He just said be ready and be prepared. That's a given. You've got to come into these workouts ready to go. Can't come in slacking. I already knew.”

While LiAngelo said that his brother didn't give him much advice, it's important to know that the two have been working their butts off ever since they were kids.
One can simply imagine the Ball family fantasizing about their NBA dreams: draining shot after shot as their conversations deepened into the night. In between these imaginings, they probably share what they've learned about their respective games and how they can improve on it.
LiAngelo also said that he'll work out for the Golden State Warriors next. While it is a big task for Ball, a former classmate of his said that he has improved so much over the years. According to Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN, Thomas Welsh said:
“He is a hardworking kid,” Welsh said. “I had a chance to play with him on 3-on-3 and 2-on-2 live action stuff. He is a lot of fun to play with. … He was shooting it extremely well. I think that is one thing he could always do well. He has stretched that shot out to NBA range so it is exciting to see.
