NBA strength and conditioning programs and ‘raggedy shoes’ are the causes of Lonzo Ball and LaMelo Ball’s injuries, according to LaVar Ball.

According to LaVar Ball in an interview with CBS Sports, his son’s injury was caused by NBA strength and conditioning programs and ‘raggedy shoes’.

Both Lonzo and LaMelo have been prone to injuries since their NBA debuts.

People say, “LaVar, you overworked the boys,” and “they hurt because they ran away from me,” but “no, they hurt because I overworked them.” “If you keep running those hills,” he said, “you’ll keep the power and the strength. But if you start using rubber bands and lightweight stuff, then you’ll start to wear out.”

Lonzo did not play in an NBA game until January 14, 2022, after undergoing a left knee cartilage transplant in March 2022.
