Veteran comedian Kenan Thompson has been the longest-serving cast member of the hit show Saturday Night Live. Throughout the years, he has brought a lot of laughs to those who watch the show and has made some hilarious impersonations of some of the most talked-about figures in the world. These days, Thompson has been known as LaVar Ball for how he has copied the way the Big Baller Brand founder speaks and acts.
The 39-year-old even appeared on Inside the NBA recently, where he was welcomed by its hosts, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal, Kenny Smith, and Ernie Johnson. He once again slew his impersonation of Ball and cracked up all four hosts by delivering some funny lines.
"Never Lost!"

Thompson's appearance on the show was very entertaining, to say the least. The four hosts, who are entertaining and hilarious in their own rights, couldn't help but laugh at his impersonation and the way he acted like he really was Ball.
Even with Ball currently spending a lot of time in Lithuania to be with his two sons, LiAngelo and LaMelo, who are playing professional basketball in the European country, Thompson is making a number of T.V. appearances and giving the fans a chance to see and hear the closest thing to the real LaVar Ball.
The former Kenan & Kel star is expected to portray Ball more on SNL, as his performances have been accepted well by the public. It's also interesting to find out what Ball himself has to say about these impersonations, and if the two will meet on T.V. as well.
