Saturday Night Live's Kenan Thompson reprised his role as LaVar Ball during the "Weekend Update" segment, which included more praise of his offspring and the official unveiling of LiAngelo Ball's signature shoe.

In his latest LaVar Ball impersonation, Kenan Thompson claims that Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball will win NBA MVP, the Dunk Contest, the three-point contest and every upcoming Powerball jackpot. Not to mention, "LaVar" says Lonzo will be America's Next Top Model.

"My offspring is gonna rule the world," the faux Ball said (H/T Bleacher Report). "Just look at me. I am a giant! Full head of hair! Twelve fingers! I can pull a tractor-trailer 20 miles over a mountain using only my junk!"

Of course, LiAngelo Ball's recent arrest for shoplifting wasn't going to go unmentioned during the Weekend Update. Thompson took the opportunity to reveal the Big Baller Brand "LiAngelo 20s" which come equipped with a Bose sound system and cost $700,000... for each individual shoe.
