LaMelo Ball noted that he didn’t drive like a crazy person once after the car accident
The Charlotte Hornets‘ LaMelo Ball is undoubtedly a talented player, and the discourse around him mostly stems from his abilities on the field. However, lately, Ball’s driving skills were talked about by a number of social media users after he was recently involved in a two-car crash in downtown Charlotte at the busy intersection of Trade and Tryon.
Since the accident happened on Thursday, after which he suited up for the Hornets in their match against the Houston RocketsBall has been seen driving much more carefully in Charlotte, with a number of social media users reacting to recent events pointing out that his poor driving is a regular occurrence, per post on Instagram by sports culture.
As can be seen in the comments, a number of users talked about multiple incidents where Ball was seen driving recklessly, with some claiming he came close to hitting other vehicles and even people on multiple occasions. While it’s not clear if social media users were joking, where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire.
So it seems that Ball is a bad driver is the general sentiment among Charlotte residents, with too many people claiming to be aware of incidents where he was seen driving wildly.
Of course, the initial crash foreshadows something similar, with Ball’s Hummer seemingly crashing into another car that had the right of way. However, the footage after the crash, in which LaMelo is seen driving his red Rolls-Royce Cullinan, shows a stark difference.
This time, Ball was seen cautiously making the turn and was looking to make sure he didn’t run into another vehicle. That will come as a big relief to fans, who are well aware of Ball’s importance to the Hornets.
