In a viral clip, Adonis, accompanied by his parents and a friend, visited the Scotiabank Arena’s visitors’ locker room before the Hornets’ game against the Toronto Raptors. Despite Ball’s absence due to injury, his presence was felt through this thoughtful gesture.
Since his last game on January 26, Ball’s absence has been noticeable, but his popularity remains strong among fans, particularly Adonis, who has been an avid follower since Ball’s NBA debut.
This isn’t the first time the young fan has received special attention from Ball. In 2023, Adonis’s sketch of Ball caught Drake’s attention on Instagram, leading to Ball sending him a pair of his signature Puma shoes.
As Ball continues to recover, his bond with fans like Adonis only grows stronger, showcasing the unique connections fostered through sports and celebrity culture.
