We are officially one step closer to all three Ball brothers playing in the NBA at the same time.
LiAngelo Ball has been offered a contract from an NBA G League team and is expected to sign, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. The middle Ball brother has been working out with the Oklahoma City Blue, which is the G League affiliate of the Thunder.

Ball last played competitively in 2018 with the Junior Basketball Association, which is the league that was founded by his family’s Big Baller Brand. While the league has not officially announced that it is defunct, no future games are scheduled.
Ball, the younger brother of New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball and older brother of potential top NBA Draft pick LaMelo Ball, went undrafted two years ago. That has not shaken his father LaVar’s confidence in him, as LaVar guaranteed in an interview on Tuesday that LiAngelo will lead the NBA in scoring within three years.
