LaVar Ball: Lonzo won't tinker with shot, percentages will rise

Lonzo Ball's shooting form is rather unorthodox, and was even mocked by some of the NBA's elite prior to the draft.

That form could present a problem once the regular season gets underway, yet Lonzo's father, LaVar Ball, doesn't feel it will be an issue, nor will it prevent him from being successful with the Los Angeles Lakers.

"Oh, ain't nobody tinkering with his shot. He's going to shoot the same way, comfortable, like I said, who cares about his shot?" LaVar said Monday during a radio interview on ESPN LA 710.

"Here's the thing, he missed a lot of shots in the first few games. They act like the percentage is going to stay there. He'll go about four or five games where he'll go 4-for-5, 6-for-8. It will catch up with him. So it's not a big deal. And it'll come out to a percentage where he's always been, in the high 40s."

Lonzo impressed in six appearances at the Las Vegas Summer League, notching two triple-doubles, a 36-point outing, and incredible averages nearly across the board. His 38.2 field-goal percentage shouldn't be swept under the rug, though.

His stroke isn't any different than what he utilized during his lone season at UCLA where he converted 55.1 percent from the field and 41.2 percent from 3-point range; so while its unique, it has proven to be effective in the past.
