Washington Wizards point guard John Wall acknowledged that LaVar Ball’s brash prediction earlier this week gave him added motivation to play well in his matchup Wednesday night against Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball.
On Sunday, LaVar Ball issued a warning to the Wizards, saying they’d “better beware because Lonzo ain’t losing again [this week].” That prompted Wizards center Marcin Gortat to take a jab at Lonzo in a tweet, predicting that Wall “will torture” him in Wednesday’s game.
