Who is her boyfriend Lonzo?

American professional basketball player Lonzo Anderson Ball was born under the zodiac sign Scorpio on 27 October 1997, in Anaheim, California USA. He’s today playing for the Chicago Bulls of the NBA and is also known for being a brother of famous professional basketball players LiAngelo Robert Ball and LaMelo LaFrance Ball, both of whom are today also in the NBA.

Lonzo was raised in Anaheim alongside his brothers LaMelo and LiAngelo, by their mother Tina and father LaVar, who both played college basketball. Lonzo was only two years old when he started playing basketball, and was six when he became a fan of professional basketball player LeBron Raymone James Sr. By the time Lonzo enrolled at Chino Hills High school in 2012, he had already played on several youth teams with his brothers; he went on to lead his high school team to a 35-0 record and a state title, with the Chino Hills Huskies ranking #1 in the US. Lonzo received various awards and accolades during his time with the Huskies, including Mr. Basketball USA, USA Today Boys Basketball Player of the Year, and Morgan Wootten National Player of the Year.

He matriculated in 2016, and then enrolled at the University of California, Los Angeles; Lonzo was with them for only a year prior to dropping out to make himself eligible for the 2017 NBA Draft, selected by the Los Angeles Lakers as the second overall pick.

Envisioning him as the franchise’s point guard of the future, Lonzo’s rookie season was marked by flashes of brilliance mixed with inconsistency, partly due to injuries that limited his playing time, however, he showcased his potential with impressive triple-doubles, and a knack for making game-winning passes.

Despite his promising talent, Lonzo’s tenure with the Lakers was overshadowed by the immense pressure and scrutiny that came with playing in Los Angeles, particularly as the point guard for one of the NBA’s most popular franchises. His shooting mechanics, particularly his unorthodox jump shot, became the main point of criticism, and his production on the court fell short of the high expectations set by fans and media alike.

In July 2019, Lonzo was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, in exchange for Anthony Davis going to play for the Lakers. The change of scenery provided Lonzo with a fresh start, and an opportunity to showcase his skills in a new environment; in New Orleans, he continued to refine his game, focusing on his shooting and defensive abilities while still showcasing his exceptional passing and court vision.

During the 2020-2021 NBA season, Ball enjoyed a breakout year with the Pelicans, demonstrating significant improvement in his shooting efficiency and defensive impact. He became a key contributor for the team, averaging career-highs in points, assists and rebounds per game.

Lonzo was traded to the Chicago Bulls on 8 August 2021 and has since been playing with them.
