He was quiet for some time before last week, but now it looks like he is back to his modus operandi of giving quotable quotes.
In a recent interview with TMZ, he made further provocative comments, this time talking about his relationship with LeBron James and issuing an ultimatum to Luke Walton.
LaVar said that he and LeBron stay away from each others’ paths, and that for the time being it is working perfectly fine.
These were his exact lines:
LaVar knows his son Lonzo is playing alongside LeBron at Los Angeles Lakers, so he probably doesn’t want to get on the wrong side of King James. But that did not stop him from issuing an ultimatum to coach Luke Walton.
LaVar said that if Walton doesn’t play Lonzo for more than 35 minutes in a match, then his job might be in danger.
Below is what he exactly said:
LaVar is a great father, there is no doubt about that. He has always stood up for his sons, and they have turned out to be very talented and hard-working; Lonzo is playing in the NBA, and the other two are doing well on the lower levels.
But these meaningless statements in the media can seriously affect the image of his sons. Walton is Lonzo’s coach, and making such irreverent comments about him can change Lonzo’s status and make his life difficult in the team.
