Cam’ron owns up to LaMelo Ball’s $100K fine for ‘no homo’ remark
Cam’ron has stepped in to defend LaMelo Ball who was fined $100,000 due to a post-game interview recording in which Ball made a homophobic comment.
This past weekend after Charlotte Hornets managed to survive the Milwaukee Bucks 115-114, Ball was on the final possession that was winding down and discussing the defense of his team and quickly added: “Yeah, we loaded up — no homo — but that’s what we wanted.”
The 23-year-old point guard was criticized for the ‘no homo’’ comment after the NBA determined it was “offensive and derogatory which led to the penalty.
In a Tuesday (November 19) episode of his sports talk show It Is What It Is, Cam’ron claimed ownership for the problem saying it stemmed from him and his hometown.
