Warriors: No plans to host Lonzo Ball’s brother for pre-draft workout

It seems some misinformation may be flowing from Big Baller Brand’s camp regarding LiAngelo Ball and the defending world champs.

The Warriors denied a HoopsHype report they’ve scheduled a private, pre-draft workout with the 19-year-old Ball, the younger brother of Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball.

In refuting the report, a Warriors spokesman said Thursday the team has no current plans to meet with LiAngelo, who quit UCLA’s team in his freshman season after being arrested for shoplifting in China on a team trip this past season. HoopsHype listed the Warriors, Clippers and Lakers as having arranged private meetings with Ball before the NBA Draft on June 21.
