Lonzo Anderson Ball
Lonzo is the eldest brother who plays as the point guard for the Chicago Bulls of the NBA.
He was also actively playing sports from his early days and was rated a five-star recruit by the end of his senior year in high school. His gameplay was exceptionally best. Thus, he signed a leer to attend the University of California and played for the Bruins.
Later he was drafted in 2017 as the first-round, overall second pick by the Los Angeles Lakers. He played for the team but could not prove his full potential because of injuries.
After two years with the Lakers, in 2019, Lonzo was traded to New Orleans Pelicans. Although he was traded on 6 July, he made his first team debut on 22 October. Again in 2021, he was swapped to the Chicago Bull with Tomas Satoransky, with whom he signed a sign-and-trade deal.
During his career, Lonzo was named the nation’s top freshman and awarded the Wayman Tisdale Award. He was also honored with the Rising Stars Challenge twice in 2018 and 2019.

LaMelo LaFrance Ball
LaMelo LaFrance is the youngest brother among the three and is the last son of their parents. Similar to both of his siblings and parents, he is also an athlete. He is also an athlete with a prospect and was selected in the first round by Charlotte Hornet as the overall third pick.
Like his brothers, he attended the same school and played on their basketball team. Nevertheless, during that period, he also achieved national success as a freshman with his brothers and won a state championship.
As mentioned in the LaFrance wiki, his father taught him to dribble and play with the ball as soon as he could walk. As a result, he was just four when he started to play with his older siblings. Further, he is also the youngest American to sign a professional contract.
He signed with Prenai of the Lithuanian Basketball League on 11 December 2017. But in May 2018, he signed a contract with Los Angeles Ballers of the Junior Basketball Association.
He also holds the position of a point guard. In 2021 he was also voted for the NBA Rookie of the year. Later he was honored with NBA All-Star this year. Before the 2022-23 NBA season started, he changed his jersey number to 1 from 2.
