The Charlotte Hornets only occasionally appear in the media. But not from the best side.
Nobody talks about Charlotte in the NBA. Except the legendary Michael Jordan sold a majority stake in the club and retained a minority stake. Airness became quite rich from him, as he bought out his stake in 2010 for $275 million and sold it for $3 billion. But we are not talking about Jordan, but about the main star of the Hornets, LaMelo Ball, who got into a very unpleasant situation. .
If we talk about the team’s recent sporting successes, newcomer Brandon Miller comes to mind. He proved successful in the second half of the last regular season and at the end of the season he placed third in voting for the Rookie of the Year award. Miller is gradually taking the reins of Ball’s team, which is increasingly in the hospital: the 22-year-old basketball player has played only 58 games in the last two seasons.
In Europe there were injuries in the playoff finals:

I’d like to see how Ball and Miller will perform together and what it will lead to when the team’s two main assets are fully healthy. It’s no secret that LaMelo loves to dress extravagantly and drive expensive cars, but until now we didn’t know that the youngest brother of the Ball family ran over the leg of one of his fans with his car.
After the fan event, 11-year-old Hornets fan Angel McRae waited outside the Spectrum Center to receive an autograph from LaMelo Ball. However, it all turned out that the boy suffered a broken leg, as the basketball player simply sped away in his car, running over him on the way. The victim’s family filed a lawsuit against the basketball player.

The McRae family attorney shared some interesting details. According to the lawyer, they would have sued the insurance company to pay the medical bills, but the police report did not include information about LaMelo Ball’s insurer.
Unflattering information has long been circulating on the Internet that LaMelo often violates traffic rules. And after pulling out of the Target Center parking lot, he feels completely like the king of the world, oblivious to the red light.
One fan wrote on social media: “I was there with my kids that day. Arena staff blocked sidewalks and stopped traffic so LaMelo could speed toward the parking lot and not stop. Brandon Miller made a rookie mistake and stopped signing things. He was surrounded by a crowd of children. “Perhaps it was this fact that led to the injury of McRae, who, due to heavy traffic, approached the road.
Now we can only guess how the boy really suffered, since there are no details. But the incident itself was reported by well-known North Carolina television station WSOC-TV. Therefore, no one doubts the reliability of this information. The McRae family has filed a lawsuit against the Charlotte Hornets, arguing that the NBA franchise could have improved safety measures for fans on a day when several thousand fans were in the stadium. The Ball family is no stranger to making headlines in newspapers and online publications.
