Natalie Weiner (March 28, 2017). "LaVar Ball's Pro Football Career, According to His Teammates, Was 'Garbage'". Bleacher Report. Retrieved April 27, 2020. LaVar Ball's Wikipedia page does not introduce him as a pundit, top NBA prospect Lonzo Ball's dad or even one of the best basketball players of all time—despite his claims to that title. Instead, he's described as a "retired American football player," recalling a two-year period in LaVar Ball's life that most, including his former teammates, have forgotten.

Is the picture panel of athlete comparisons (Magic Johnson, Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, LeBron James) really necessary? While LaVar Ball has made these comparisons there is no real actual connection between these photographs and the subject of the article.

Aside from the picture of Ball in the infoboxand of him under "Business interests", all the other ones seem unuseful and barely related, mostly pictures for the sake of having a picture.—Bagumba (talk) 14:21, 18 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
