LaMelo Ball All-Star Ballot Stuffing. Plus, Will Zion Ever Get Right? | Real Ones

The pod opens with Raja, Logan, and Howard discussing a video of Raja getting hyped on the court after his son had an intense game versus another good player in Miami (00:57). The guys have a spirited conversation on how and why LaMelo Ball is getting so much All-Star love (6:09). The Pelicans suspended Zion Williamson on Friday prior to their matchup against the Sixers for a violation of team policies, but this has been a pattern for Zion. What’s next for his career and for the Pelicans (32:49)? Jimmy Butler wants out of Miami. Should he be careful about how he’s viewed across the league in requesting a trade (44:46)?
