Ellen DeGeneres got Lonzo Ball good.
The Los Angeles Lakers rookie recently appeared on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" with his father, LaVar, and exuded the same confidence his pops often projects on him.
"I have it. He's just a little louder than I am," Lonzo said about the belief he'll become the greatest player of all time.
DeGeneres responded with a rather humbling gift: a framed poster of her posterizing the No. 2 overall pick.
Bold move by the TV host, as Lonzo threatened to boycott NBA 2K18 after a photo surfaced of teammate Brandon Ingram getting dunked on in the video game.
Will he boycott "The Ellen DeGeneres Show"?
