Magic Johnson: LaVar Ball Won’t Effect Lonzo’s Draft Stock

New Los Angeles Lakers president Magic Johnson says LaVar Ball and his provocative personality won’t influence whether Johnson drafts former UCLA star Lonzo Ball.

“No effect at all,” Johnson told ESPN at the NBA combine. “I think what you’re drafting is the son and not the father. I think that you also are gauging and evaluating his son on his ability and what he can do not only on the basketball court but also what he can do for your team. How he can enhance and make your team better.”
