LiAngelo Ball is turning heads, but not on the basketball court. Instead, he’s finding a new rhythm in the music industry, performing under the name GELO. While his brothers Lonzo and LaMelo continue their basketball journeys, LiAngelo is carving his own lane, and his latest move proves he’s serious about it.
At the 2025 BET Awards, hosted by Kevin Hart, GELO made a bold statement. During the pre-show event outside the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, he took the stage in front of a lively crowd. At one time, he surprised fans by bringing out his brother, Lonzo Ball, mid-performance.

GELO’s musical journey began with the release of his debut single, “Tweaker.” It has gained traction among fans for its catchy hooks and confident delivery. For LiAngelo, this venture into music may be just the beginning. While questions remain about his future in professional basketball, there’s no doubt GELO is gaining momentum off the court.
Lakers Reportedly Open To Lonzo Ball Reunion
A Lonzo Ball return to Los Angeles may not be out of the question. According to NBA insider Jovan Buha, the Lakers could be interested in reuniting with their former No. 2 overall pick if the price and circumstances are right.
“I do, I think they would be. It’s just a matter of what his price is and you have to factor in his health and the history there. You can’t even pencil him in for 60 games. So whatever you’re giving up for him, there has to be some level of a discount, or you’re factoring in this dude might just play 40 or 50 games. He’s a guy you have to load manage. How can we load manage him to get to April in one piece,” Buha said.
