Where does the Manchester United connection come from?
The link to Manchester United comes from a third party, not from Lonzo Ball himself. MUFC Info writes that Ball "has been seen sporting Manchester United gear and occasionally tweets about their matches." That is a description of what he has been seen wearing and posting, with no date attached, and it is a background tie, not a fandom he has stated.
Does it line up with where he is from?
Ball was born in Anaheim, California, on October 27, 1997, and played at Chino Hills High School in Chino Hills, California. From there he went to UCLA for the 2016-17 season and was drafted second overall by the Los Angeles Lakers in 2017. His NBA stops since then have been the New Orleans Pelicans, the Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers. None of those places, schools or teams is linked to Manchester United in the material available, so nothing in his birthplace, schools or teams explains the tie.
