Played out of position my last 2 seasons. I ain’t get a pro day. I ain’t get no combine invites. I never got a real chance to show the world what I can really do. I’m still overlooked. In due timing though 🙏🏾
They keep playing like Shump don’t know ball !!!! 🔥🔥

Lonzo Ball reveals that he was planning to go overseas to play basketball in Dubai last week after opening up to Gilbert Arenas about his brutal knee injury, but ultimately decided against it because he no longer has the same love for the game 😔💔
“It made it to where I can do sh*t, but it’s still gonna hurt… On offense, I can’t really go cause I can’t stop for real. It’s like I’m playing in stilts.”
“I had 3 surgeries in 14 months…”
“It just takes the joy out of it because your game changes… You physically can’t get there”
“I got hurt at 25, I got 3 All Stars, 3 All-NBAs… Each year I’m coming back, I’m injured again”
“I don’t know if my sh*t about to give out on this layup. I have full blown layups f*cked up on the Bulls. Why don’t know what’s about to happen. Like ‘Should I really be out here right now?’”

Lamar Jackson says he watched friends chase fast money while he was playing the long game and counting how many years it would take him to reach the NFL
“I’m seeing my friends who I was growing up with who I was playing football with… Just throw their life away for fast money and stuff like that. They used to tell me ‘Oh, you talk too much’. Because I used to always speak about football and positivity stuff. They didn’t want to hear that.”
“Now it’s like… They’d rather hear it now because I’m Lamar Jackson. But I’ve been speaking about it. Everybody just wasn’t listening. I was already seeing what was going on. I wish we could go back in time and y’all could see what I was seeing. Because I always looked at life like, I counted years.”
“Like I would think… ‘How many years does it take to get to the league?’ They’re saying… ‘You do three years in college.’ I said… ‘I’m doing three years.’ I’m not doing four. I’m not trying to go fifth year. I’m doing three years because I’m going to make sure my family is good.”
“If you’re coming from a place like where I come from, don’t try to be like the guys around you. Don’t look up to the stuff that looks like it’s fun… Because sometimes it gets you in trouble.”
“It’s sacrificing. ‘Man, I can’t have fun right now. I’ve got to get my family right. I can’t do this right now. I can’t mess up.’ Forget the fast money. I’ve got to think about longevity.”
“You can get locked up and do five years for $1,000. That money gone. It’s gone. You’re like… ‘Man, I just did that for $1,000…’ And I could have waited five years and I would’ve had $10 million.”
“That’s why I’m where I’m at right now. That’s how I used to think. My mom working… She’s busting her behind. It’s me, my brother and my two sisters at home. I’m the oldest…”
“So I’ve got to make sure everybody right. And it’s like… Man, I can’t wait, but I’ve got to wait. That’s the sacrifice. I’ve got to be patient. People don’t look at it like that. It’s like… ‘Man, I need that money right now.’ But you don’t need that money right now. Just wait.”
Used to pray to be in moments like this to make memorable moments for people. God had a different route for me

Dwayne Bacon says Nikola Batum made $25,000,000 a year while he made only $2.5,00,000 and his own NBA coach still wouldn't play him
"I look at it as this. Nick Batum is making 125 million but I'm making 3 million. I'm making 2.5 million over a course of three years. Like he making 25 million a year"
"So like when he come back off his injury, he's got to play. He's playing like regardless"
"Nobody had to push me to work. Nobody had to push me to put that time in. But it do come a time to where you just like, alright, I want to go play"
"I went down and hit 50, 45, and 40 in three consecutive games three consecutive games in four nights"
"That's how I end up leaving the league"
