Lonzo Ball’s estimated net worth in 2021: $15 million. Lonzo Ball’s salary this season is $4 million. He can expect a raise after making the Lakers’ roster. However, his annual income could be less if he ends up with the team as a free agent after this season.
Lonzo was born on January 4th, 1992 in La Crescenta, California. He is an American basketball player who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. His father, LaVar, has been described as an entertainer who promotes himself as a sports agent and entrepreneur. His mother, Tina, is a former college volleyball player. They met while playing at Chino Hills High School in Chino Hills, California. After graduating from Chino Hills, they moved to Beijing where LaVar played professional basketball while Lonzo attended the University of Arizona. When Lonzo decided to quit school to join the Lakers, his parents sued the university for breach of contract.
After just one season with the Lakers, where he appeared in all 82 games, Lonzo is expected to be a top pick in the 2017 NBA draft.
