UCLA Basketball: Lonzo Ball’s Father Guarantees a UCLA National Championship
Last night during the UCLA Basketball game against Portland, LaVar Ball, father of freshman point guard Lonzo Ball, guaranteed a UCLA National Championship.
This UCLA Basketball team is much improved from last season. Not only are they turning heads but are doing so as the top scoring team in college hoops.
This has prompted a lot of emotion with this team, especially from those that are close to the situation.

The senior Ball has been very outspoken about the play of his son and did so once again last night during UCLA’s first round contest in the Wooden Legacy tournament against Portland.
