While the 2017 NBA Draft is loaded with more talent than has been seen in years, one player has gotten the lion’s share of the attention — Lonzo Ball.

Lonzo is a great player and has some of the best court-vision you could hope to find in a rookie out of college, but his play and his passing aren’t the only reasons his name has been grabbing headlines. Much of that attention can be credited to his father, LaVar Ball.

With Lonzo entering the NBA this season, his younger brother LiAngelo heading to play at UCLA, and his youngest brother LaMelo one of the most-watched high school players in the country, it’s safe to say that the Balls, and their father LaVar, will be apart of the lives of basketball fans for some time to come.

You can learn more about Lonzo Ball’s rise to being a lottery pick, and the Ball family as a whole, below.
