LiAngelo Robert Ball is an American professional basketball player currently affiliated with Vytautas Prienai–Birštonas, a team from the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL). A shooting guard, he is a naturally gifted player with an impressive 6-foot-5, 216-pound stature. Born in a family of athletes, Ball grew up playing with older opponents. He began training and working out when he was four years old and two years later, he first played alongside his brothers. In August 2011, he and his brothers participated in the Junior Phenom Camp, where he was ranked the 12th best player in his class. Ball then started playing for Chino Hills High School in Chino Hills, California and soon gained a national reputation for leading his team in scoring for multiple seasons, averaging a state-high 33.8 points per game as a senior, and earning All-Area and All-State honours several times. His stellar performance at the school level brought him the chance to represent UCLA Bruins as a three-star recruit. However, he later had to withdraw following his suspension for shoplifting in China. Despite not being regarded as an NBA prospect, Ball was prepared for the 2018 draft by his father. In December 2017, Ball joined BC Prienai as their new shooting guard.
