LaMelo Ball’s Odd Interview With Wolves Recalled

November 25, 2025 by Hoops Rumors

  • LaMelo Ball‘s poor interview with the Timberwolves during the 2020 pre-draft process helped convince them to make Anthony Edwards the No. 1 pick, relays Sam Jane of The Athletic. His colleague, Jon Krawczynski, told the story of Ball’s presidential aspirations during a recent appearance on Zach Lowe’s podcast. “One of the questions that was asked of him was: ‘Hey, LaMelo, after you’re done playing, what do you see yourself doing when your career is over? What kind of things do you aspire to?’ And LaMelo said, ‘I want to be president of the United States,’” Krawczynski stated. He adds that the team wasn’t sure if the answer was legitimate or if Ball was bored with conducting interviews, but it helped to make Minnesota’s decision clearer.
