exactly, don't ask a 19 year old kid about a political problem when he's exited about his future.

[@undeadsniperrr4455]

Goldie how was an "escape" answered? I directly answered it lol he just added he's trying to keep it on basketball at the end cause that's all he's worried about

[@chumbucket182]

undeadsniperrr when I say "escape answer", I mean that he answered it, but he ain't trynna go any further into discussion about that topic. He answered it in a way to get out of further questions about politics

[@victorcopado5568]

That boy 19 lmao dont ask him bout politics

[@AntonioPerez-vw8rn]

Ik bro Craig hodges got in trouble and couldn't play in the league anymore because he was talking bad about politics

[@AntonioPerez-vw8rn]

[@brandoncampbell9808]

He is also a public figure.

[@juliennguyen9518]

she is the worst interviewer ESPN has ever got

[@jds2056]

Anh Trí Bguyeenx I agree. Sometimes I just wonder how some of these people become qualified to discuss sports.

[@ikeejay3084]

She totally sidetracked off of basketball and started talking about his shows and politics

[@BrokeMalone]

wuahhh maybe yall could be espns interviewer if u came outa ur basement

[@zackhayes1268]

JDS Videography and she's ugly af which shouldn't matter but it really really does lol

[@PMDownUp]

She threw him under the bus the first game.

[@lipesilva1]

[@VinhLe-gc8ws]

[@theapexlifestyle4278]

That's how the media works. They dickride you when you balling and trash you when you do bad.

[@VinhLe-gc8ws]

look the fat bitch created a fake account and replied to the comment

[@92397]

PMDownUp how?

[@dka3596]

folks in these comments hating on this kid for being confident. He wasn’t arrogant in anyway he just believes in his team’s potential and his own ability. What athlete doesn’t?

[@samk9983]

Why are they trying to pull this kid into their identity politics?

[@christopheralmeda6403]

I like this kid. And I know for a fact he is going to be special.

[@MrAzzalo]

He very mature for a 19 year old he seems very locked in and focused

[@Modousing]

His lineup is always sharp

[@ceciliamartinez5209]

He gonna go down as one of the Elite point guards in the NBA

[@tr3thaiii]

people acf like he cant have an opinion, your always your brand, stand for what you believe in, talent just wont dissapear, not that hard working man's. When you work hard theres nothing to worry about.

[@jerryjackson2885]

[@josediazasmr6014]

Lonzo 😭 tgod I is from la CA 🤗

[@samk9983]

This interview has really pissed me off. Why bring politics into it? This kid has to realise this is another way by which the media can destroy their brand after their failed attempts to destroy his father

[@starwizzy9426]

Sam K facts!!!I wish he just kept quiet. You can tell he doesn't know much about politics:

[@ogxsaintnick]

I think he responded well just basically said he's with the players and doesn't agree with trump

[@TheGuardiola122]

Noooooo lonzo stay out of it bro. Just play basketball fam

[@garylion1123]

I like this dude

[@detroitjay777]

Camera Man, can we see those???

He interviews like a 2k player

[@ifyouare2]

I wanted to see the shoes

[@supremethedream2175]

He basically jus said he gone carry the Lakers to the play off😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.....JOKES😂😂😂😂

[@ldonpoon1590]

NO teenager is afraid to speak their mind

[@ing4gi]

Ball players can have an opinion and have always had. Having an opinion of course has consequences, but don't treat them like kids and say they have to shut their mouths. It's not what 'Muricah stands for.

[@sammitchell7728]

Lonzo not afraid to speak his mind lol fuck the internet

[@davidleavell7453]

Win the championship

[@davidwasneverthere8149]

Baby chops

[@Gberluz]

Hey, Guess what! These players are still people first, which means they have the right and duty to be politically active and knowledgeable. All of you that say "stick to sports" need to shut tf up.

[@PercyMiller456]

gberluz THANK YOU!

[@PUNSHDRUNKBOXING]

see how ESPN didn't even zoom the shoe smh. hater

[@davon5047]

[@brandethewine]

[@vannaraphoeuk2196]

Reporters always trying to start shit

[@stevenporter7065]

You respect that flag!

[@laronr19]

Why would they go out the way to protest during the anthem that would be so forced

[@moneymakingodie]

I'm a die hard Lakers fan. We are not making the playoffs

[@outoftime417]

When this bum get a dose of these elite teams. We'll see how confident he is

[@asddjs4995]

i blame the interviewer for this shit, lonzo didn't even wanna answer this question can you stop asking sports people about politics?

[@edgarbrito5014]

What's he sopposed to say

[@piminjack]

Not in the west maybe if the Lakers was in the east

[@liberalsneedhelpamen9245]

"Lonzo, you're black so you will obviously be taking a knee to show that rich white, right" -(black liberal reporter) Lonzo-"ummmm. I'm young. WTF do I know about life. Get back to me when I have helped the community or something "

[@bryantaguilar7573]

Lakers are not making the playoffs 😂 if they were in the east then they probably would but definitely not in the west

[@92397]

Bryant Aguilar just watch

[@kevine-anaba4348]

facts

[@thelukester999]

Honestly though if he wants to win he'll play his hardest. Which means, with his style of play, he's going to be finding the open man very effectively and efficiently and he's a pretty good scorer around the paint. Honestly, he shouldn't be shooting 3s too much. He's good with driving to the lane and all that. He should use it to his advantage

[@anthonycastro8990]

Lakers = Playoffs '18

[@tikoakinney4781]

he's a good player the west is to loaded for them to make playoffs wait til he has to play against guards like Westbrook harden curry Lord help him lol

[@andyvelasquez9488]

poor kid..he actually thinks they makin the playoffs

[@David-rh7xx]

Let's talk Basketball and just how awful the Lakers looked. OMG I know it's still pre-season but this team, I have no words, a 4 on 1 fast break and they can't convert. Seriously, pre season or not they are professionals and that's just standard operating procedure, but not for the Lakers.. Can't wait until 2018 as this version of the team will be unwatchable.. I turned off and tuned out after the fastbreak. I would have turned off after Minny went to the line like 100 times in the first quarter but figured I would try and at least pretend to have some hope, but NO, we got more of the same Lakers we have all come to love to hate and cringe at. See you all next season.

[@buzzwolfe7791]

God the protesting shit needs to not be encouraged

[@JL-yq9xn]

nba 2k12 my player sounding ass

[@voetbal12]

I wish Lonzo was so pro Trump, just to see the shocked face on that stupid reporters face. He's a kid, just got drafted and living the dream and chasing a new one, and you have to ask him about the political climate? "Curry shouldn't speak unless his wife let's him, Trump is the greatest president this country has ever had, BBB is taking over, LaVar 2024."

[@robertmathews1217]

1:20 gonna talk to luke about it...SMFH what happened to calling your coach..coach????? thats the problem with these children that was born in the 2000s no respect

[@jaydendhaliwal8238]

Robert mathews maybe Luke likes it when you call him by his name. Creates more of a personal connection than just coach.

[@robertmathews1217]

Jayden Dhaliwal really??? and how old are you??

[@robertmathews1217]

Jayden Dhaliwal because if u ain't a kid u must have never played sports PERIOD

[@thespicycabbage]

man. stop merging sports with politics. wtf

[@Yahudahs_Roar]

Funny how people are mad at his and other players answer but the same people aren't mad at the one who keep asking these questions...by the way it's not about politics...its about bringing awareness to consistent and legalized murder of human beings. Get a clue...what if it was you being killed unjustly by the very ones that took an oath to serve and protect...not to judge and execute. But oh well go back to being distracted by sports and wait your turn. Pledge to justice not this hypocritical symbol of a "flag." It's just cloth and hypocrisy and an idol. I'd rather freedom much more than just a "symbol of freedom". #No flag worship!! Wake up!!👀

[@antoniotatum8212]

Someone understands

[@dariansalter8089]

Edward Thomas 💯💯💯💯💯 you a real one for saying this, people only hate them speaking on these topics because now there's no were to run from reality, people are done being asleep it's time we all see this shit for what it really is.

[@anthonymcgee4472]

Edward Thomas ✊🏾✊🏾

[@Jr-fl2pq]

No one talks about black on black crime though. How about players stand up and speak against black on black crime for a change. 😴

[@Yahudahs_Roar]

Ralph Palacios Soooooo "Black on black" crime makes police on black crime ok.....oooohh now I see the logic in that. Police 1: Hey Bob!! Police 2: Yeeeah Billy... Police 1: Weeeeell since there already killing each other. Maaaybe nobody ol notice if we just pick a couple of em off. Sooo what do ya reckon? Police 2: Weeell gaaallee that sounds like a rite good idear ya got theeeere. Police 1: And if anybody says anythang we'll just say there already doing it we're just being rite good AmeeeriKKKans and helping them out. Goooood one.....thats like the police seeing somebody robbing a bank and instead of stopping it they just help with the baggs and give them a police escort out the city. SMH. 🤔🤔😐😐

[@carlanthony332]

His face smh...

[@name-te8bm]

Sean Graham what about it

[@brianbaty7756]

I fuckin hate these political questions.

[@trobbs1581]

[@paulinorojasa212]

Go to the east to make playoffs lakers aren't even getting past the rockets

[@nycekix]

Lose the chops

[@joshuarizzo8072]

Worst camera man.

[@ArmandoKozomara]

Just leave politics alone. And he's ONLY 19 YEARS OLD ! he shouldn't be talking politics. And I can't help buy notice his head is way too big for his body and shoulders and that hair makes it worse. Hair gotta go man if you ask me

[@reddbomani7637]

he's a bust

[@mickeysantos8846]

make the playoffs?hhhhmm..lavar is in there i see..

[@hiphoprbloverjon9180]

Mickey Santos His goal dummy. Not for sure.

[@highal3706]

lavar ball> trump aka potus cu.......nt

[@klausschwab4408]

he would have more honor if he would have listened to nas lol don't predict things just because u think you are the greatest to live on earth. how do you deserve more money then ingram? humble your ass and show up for the games. U did not deserve the summer league tittle. kuzma played better this kid is overrated af dennis smith the sleeper watch him

[@puffpuffpassbrah6437]

Lakers ain't gonna make the playoffs 😂 😂 😂

[@MisterBinx]

Lakers are not making the playoffs. Even if he averages a triple double they are garbage.

[@iamgelo_0492]

Yellowish mike Conley

[@Chance007]

She too damn short.

[@blitz5.0]

of course he is against trump flat out ignorance u get paid millions to play and u cant simpmy show ur respect to a flag that millions of ppl died for c'mon that is sad. what he needs to do is learn a thing or 2 about what that flag stand for and see how disrespectful that shit is

[@SageSamo]

You look like you don't know what the flag stands for yourself, it's F R E E D O M... Nothing more, nothing less. They have every right to protest and speak out whether you like it or not. Trying to stop them is as un-American as it gets. You should learn before you spout ignorant shit

[@rx1057]

CrypticPel doesn't matter how many died for that flag because apparently if you could use context people don't want to stand by and be represented by Trump or that flag cause it is simply endorsing that behavior simply people have a right because everything means something different to each individual I personally honour and commend everyone that puts their life on the line but it doesn't mean I can't have an opinion and stand up for my beliefs

[@jackybandz4685]

Trump already committed treason and you still back him now thats spitting on the flag you love

[@blitz5.0]

Jacky Bandz how? Show concrete evidence exactly u cant like obama was a better President letting all those illegal cunt to come in here and sell drug steal our money how kill our citizen u look to talk but cant none of it up? A lot of them on welfare or some other shit 😂😂

[@blitz5.0]

Young Jefé i understand they can if they want to im just saying its not right
