LaMelo Ball of the Charlotte Hornets has been under fire lately for his careless driving habits. Ball has repeatedly been seen driving recklessly and running red lights, especially in the vicinity of the Charlotte Hornets arena.
LaMelo Ball, who is well-known for his large NBA salary, enjoys expensive cars and recently showed off a fresh tattoo. His opulent lifestyle is highlighted by his outstanding collection, which includes a Bentley and multiple Ferraris.
High-end car ownership does, however, come with a duty to drive them carefully. Ball seems to be oblivious to this.
Although the widely shared compilation of his careless driving has been removed, supporters still express their worries. Ball has been advised by some to either hire a qualified driver or learn how to drive safely. Hopefully, he will heed these cautions before an avoidable mishap happens.
Remarks from a victim of LaMelo Ball’s careless driving are heartbreaking
A victim of LaMelo Ball’s careless driving has shared devastating remarks. Many people thought Ball’s actions had not led to any significant incidents, but a heartbreaking narrative from a Charlotte family disproves this notion.
The family claims that after turning down the 11-year-old’s request for a signature, Ball ran over Angell Joseph’s foot and broke it. Following the incident, the boy’s mother relayed her son’s heartbreaking words:
“[Angell] was like, ‘LaMelo, I love you. I love you, sign my … give me your autograph. Can you sign it for me?’” she recounted.
After an event, fans reportedly approached players, which is when the incident happened. When Ball’s negligent driving caused the accident, Angell hurried to get his autograph. According to the boy’s mother, Angell had to go through physical therapy, emotional anguish, and grief due to the incident involving his favorite athlete.
The Charlotte Hornets and the NBA have not yet responded to Ball’s most recent incident of reckless driving. However, given the possible risk, it wouldn’t be shocking if the league got involved. Families and supporters alike want a solution that guarantees responsibility and safety both on and off the court.
