Lonzo is out for two seasons. LaMelo got a season ending injury last season. And last game he got injured again. I mean, these guys get injured all the time. Is it the way they train? Or is it really the sneakers? Lol

    Nobody is giving you a real answer but it’s genetics. Families in pro sports usually excel at certain things while remaining vulnerable at others. Look at seth curry. Good/great 3pt shooter just like his bro, but just not as good. But they both made the nba. Look at the giannis bros. They’re on the same team and also play the same way, but giannis is way better.

    Also clout, I doubt giannis brother makes the nba without giannis’ influence.

    maaaaaaan, get outta here. Lonzo is 7 foot 10 with the body of Jim Brown and the blood of Keith Richards. LaMelo is a cyborg based upon my Baller Brand shoe technology. And LiAngelo is the ladies man of the G-Spot League

    nevah lost. NEVAH LOST

    Ultimately any NBA player over like 6’5 is a genetic freak. Those bodies probably aren’t supposed to be exposed to the level of activity that NBA players have to go through in their careers.

      This.

      The human body isn’t really designed for the regular pounding a professional athlete or prospective professional athlete will give it, especially if you are above-average height/weight, like basketball players mostly are.

      Some can handle it, or develop their bodies to handle it, bit some simply can’t. It seems like the Ball brothers simply can’t.

    Did you see the video of Lonzo doing standing curls? It’s poor body mechanics training. Millionaire kids do what they want and will hire yes bros around them

    Their dad trained them from the league practically since the day they could walk

    And on top of that, shitty diet could play a part of it. LaMelo seems like the type dude that eats like a middle schooler. I know not too long ago, Lonzo made it a point that he was gonna try to get him & his brothers to eat cleaner

    Genetics and bad training. Look at Steph curry. It took surgeries, learning how to fall, running on his tippy toes more, and huge ankle braces to become what he became.

    I would say over use and a terrible strength and conditioning program. Also most athletes don’t start adding injury prevention into their workouts until they are much older. Something I I wish I did in my 20s
