Lonzo Ball was born and raised in California. Being a child of two former basketball players, Lonzo developed an interest in basketball from a very early age. Apart from Lonzo, his two brothers are also basketball players, and all the three brothers practiced together in their school days under the mentorship of their father. He completed his school education at the Chino Hills High School in California, from where his basketball career emerged. He took part in several basketball matches and won titles and soon became a professional player. With success comes money, which makes the fans wonder about Lonzo Ball’s net worth.
After completing his graduation, he took admission to UCLA and began playing for the Bruins for one year. At the beginning of his career, he did not achieve a lot due to having multiple injuries in the knee and shoulder. However, after undergoing arthroscopic surgery, he resumed his basketball career and played several matches for the Lakers in 2018.
Unfortunately, the situation got worse when Lonzo again suffered a Grade 3 left ankle sprain. After getting rid of an ankle injury, Lonzo resumed playing basketball. That time he had joined the New Orleans Pelicans team. In 2021, Lonzo left the team and became a free agent. After leaving, the 25-year-old had joined Chicago Bulls and played alongside famous basketball players Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan.

His father owns an apparel business under the name of “Big Baller Brand,” and Lonzo holds 51% shares of this company. Most of the company’s products are sold at $495. Apart from this, Lonzo was also offered several big contracts in the short span of his career. In July 2017, Lonzo joined the Lakers basketball team, where he was offered $33-million for playing for four years as a part of the deal. Although, as I mentioned before, Lonzo left the team earlier before the expiration of the contract. Hence, he was paid less. Alongside this, Lonzo was also a part of the Chicago Bulls in 2021, where he earned $18,604,651 in a year.
When it comes to properties, Lonzo owns a $5.2-million mansion in California. He also took part in brand endorsements and promoted brands such as Marvel, Footlocker, and C4 Energy. Most of the athletes don’t pay attention to investments and waste their money in buying expensive clothes, watches, or cars. However, Lonzo is not such a kind of person. He is very much concerned about savings and infused his earnings in several start-ups and sports broadcasting networks. Lonzo is quite fascinated by cars. As a result, he owns two luxury cars, including a Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, which costs up to $84,995, and a Mercedes G63 priced at $156,450.
Controversies Associated With Lonzo Ball
In the short span of his career, Lonzo Ball has seen lots of ups and downs. At the beginning of his career, Lonzo used to wear his household brand’s shoes while going to the matches. However, when Lonzo’s ankle or leg injuries worsened his team, the Lakers started blaming his father’s owned company ‘Big Baller Brand’ for making uncomfortable sports shoes. However, at that time, Lonzo denied allegations, but when the rumors began spreading massively, Lonzo gave up all his connections with the company and began wearing different brand’s shoes in his basketball matches.
In the same year, Lonzo was again caught in a controversy when one of Big Baller Brand partners, Gregory Alan Foster, looted $1.5 million from Lonzo. Lonzo and his family demanded millions as compensation from Foster.
