Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle sounded off on an ESPN report Sunday that sourced Lakers forward Lonzo Ball’s father, Lavar Ball, as stating that Los Angeles coach Luke Walton had “lost the team.”
The story from ESPN writer Jeff Goodman, datelined out of Lithuania where Ball’s other sons are playing professionally, appeared on its digital platform and Carlisle was asked about it.
“As president of the NBA Coaches Association, I view the ESPN article as a disgrace,” Carlisle said. “Luke Walton is a terrific young coach bringing along a young team,” Carlisle said. “It’s a difficult task. If you don’t believe it, ask me. We’re going through that now and went through it last year.”
