According to TMZ Sports, Ball and his camp vehemently deny any such allegations of a lingering ankle injury. Ball family spokesperson Denise White tells TMZ, “Alan Foster has repeatedly lied, defrauded and stole from the Ball family. Anything he says cannot be trusted.”

Furthermore, a rep for the Pelicans tells TMZ, “The team strongly debunks this and was very aware of Lonzo’s injury history and status [before we traded for him].”

An ankle isn’t an issue that can’t be fixed. 

If it was his back, then I’d be worried. . .
