by If you were one of the dozens that swore Liangelo Ball, you would ever get the court of an NBA All-Star game, well, you can at least say that you were partially correct.
The middle child of the ball family, who is currently starting a music career, will perform on All-Star on Saturday evening as part of the festivities in the Chase Center in San Francisco, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.
The performance comes a month after Ball had signed a deal with Def Jam and Universal Music Group who paid him up to $ 13 million, with $ 8 million guaranteed. His song “Tweaker” was released on the YouTube page of Worldstarhiphop on January 3 and has since received more than 14 million views.
A video clip was released last week, with more than 5 million views and a remix with Lil Wayne was released on Thursday.
It will not be the first time that Ball has performed at an event, because he made an unnecessary appearance during the Detroit Lions Divisional-Round match against the Washington Commanders after the Lions played his song in the dressing room to celebrate their division title .
Unlike his older brother, Lonzo, and younger brother, Lamelo, Lianangelo Ball never appeared in an NBA game. He was a three-star recruit in high school and followed Lonzo to UCLA, but he was suspended after an alleged theft during a trip to China and left the team before he was recovered. While his brothers were both top-three picks in their respective NBA concepts, Ball remained unguided in 2018.
Since then, Ball has played in the Snele Junior Basketball Association of his father, appeared in 31 games with the G League Greensboro Swarm and a short appearance appeared in Cibacopa in Mexico last year.
Lamelo Ball was one of the more striking snubs from the NBA All-Star game from 2025, where the event was delivered missing despite a career year and the most fan voices in the Eastern Conference. However, he made the game in 2022. Lonzo Ball has never been an all-star, but was selected early in his career for two rising stars challenges, although he both missed due to injuries.
