LaVar Ball is talking some big game about his kids again.

It must be nice having a father so confident in your own abilities that he will say almost anything to convince people that you're the best at what you do. When it comes to fathers who are exactly like this, look no further than LaVar Ball. LaVar has made a name for himself thanks to his outlandish remarks involving his three kids, Lonzo, LiAngelo, and LaMelo. With Lonzo in the NBA, LaVar has made plenty of claims that his kid is one of the best players in the league. His middle child LiAngelo, wasn't so lucky as he was never drafted into the NBA. This hasn't stopped LaVar from making some bold claims about his kid though.

Ball hopped on TMZ and made the ridiculous claim that future first overall pick Zion Williamson, "can't hold a candle" to LiAngelo. 

"He ain't no big Baller," LaVar said. "He's a Williamson. Williamsons ain't stronger than Ballers!"

It's hard to know if LaVar truly believes this or he's just trying to instill confidence in his son. If LaVar does in fact believe this, he's out of pocket but that didn't stop him from doubling down.

"Biggest and the strongest 2-guard in the NBA right now. Ain't nobody built like him at the 2-guard. Nobody. 6-6, 240, can shoot the 3, post you up -- kill you. But, you going to see. You going to see," LaVar said ofLiAngelo's ability. "I guarantee he'll be in the summer league, and guarantee he'll have an NBA contract this year. How's that?!"
