Twitter user confuses LeVar Burton of 'Reading Rainbow' for LaVar Ball
LaVar Ball, the father of UCLA standout Lonzo Ball, has been in the headlines constantly over the past two weeks with his outlandish claims, causing some to lash out on Twitter.
"Reading Rainbow" host LeVar Burton found himself caught in the crossfire Thursday after one user confused him for Ball. (That person also tagged the wrong Michael Jordan.)
@levarburton LeVar you averaged 2.2 PPG, stop running your mouth about MJ. #shutup @MichaelJordaan

Burton didn't seem too bothered by the mixup, and his followers got a good laugh out of it:
