Former UCLA point guard Lonzo Ball has been overshadowed at times in the past year by his outspoken father, LaVar.

The elder ball has made headlines with a series of brash statements, but it looks like his son might get the last laugh.

Lonzo Ball spoofed his dad in a hilarious Father’s Day commercial from Foot Locker that mixes in the typical kind of messages you would expect in a tribute with a list of LaVar’s various public relations offenses.

As someone worried the father was writing checks his son would have to cash on the court in the NBA, it’s good to see Lonzo has a sense of humor about it all.
