Lonzo Ball Takes Shot at Lakers in Latest Rap Single
By Jerry Trotta
It would appear that Lonzo Ball will be playing with a BIG time chip on his shoulder in 2019 as he transitions from sunny Los Angeles to New Orleans.
The new Pelicans point guard released his second hip hop mixtape on Thursday, titled "50&30," and brazenly scorned the Lakers in a song entitled "Last Days."
As the bar goes: "You know I'm all business. L.A. is going to regret their decision." Pretty unambiguous stuff right there.
Check out a 30-second snippet of the song that contains the diss. WARNING: it contains offensive language.
Yeah, we'll go out on a limb and say that Ball will be motivated to prove that the Lakers organization shouldn't have been so quick to ship him out of town.
Of course, LA dealt the former UCLA star to the Big Easy along with Josh Hart, Brandon Ingram, and three first-round picks in exchange for Anthony Davis.
To nobody's surprise, Ball received backlash from a profusion LA stans and he responded on Twitter, asserting that he didn't belittle anybody in the song and that he actually enjoyed his near two-year stint in Hollywood.
Sure ya didn't, Lonzo. As we know, optics are prevalent in today's day and age and the 21-year-old is doing his part to ensure he doesn't burn any bridges.
Whatever the case, he definitely hasn't forgotten that the Lakers viewed him as dispensable trade bait.
