While LaMelo and Lonzo Ball are making their way in the NBA, their brother LiAngelo has chosen a completely different direction. Following recent internet buzz, Ball’s older brother has hinted that there are some exciting developments in his musical journey.
Last week, LiAngelo set social media alight with his latest track, “Tweakers,” which quickly gained popularity on the basketball circuit. The catchy tune has even seeped into locker rooms, with players from the Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls enjoying the song after their weekend games.
On Sunday afternoon, Lonzo Ball shared a video of himself and his Bulls teammates singing the lyrics to LiAngelo’s new track. The former No. 2 overall draft pick said his brother’s musical output doesn’t stop there, hinting there’s more to come.

For Lonzo, this season has been particularly rewarding as he returns to the court with the Bulls after being sidelined the last two seasons due to a knee injury. He is now finally able to compete consistently.
So far this year, Lonzo has played in 16 games, averaging 5.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.4 steals per game.
Since their early days playing alongside each other in Chino Hills, the Ball brothers have supported each other. Even though they have taken different paths, this unwavering support remains intact.
As “Tweakers” gained popularity online, Lonzo was among the first to publicly support his brother, affirming his confidence in LiAngelo’s talent and hinting that more music was to come.
“I’m trying to tell you that @LiAngeloBall is really like that. More to come!
It’s worth noting that LiAngelo isn’t the only Ball brother with musical aspirations. Lonzo, under the nickname “Zo”, also progressed in music, releasing several singles and albums over the years. His latest tracks, “Live N Learn” and “WAE”, were released in 2024, with “Ball-Star Pack” being his last album released in 2022.
