LiAngelo Robert Ball (born November 24, 1998), also known by his stage names G3 and GELO, is an American professional basketball player and rapper who last played for the Astros de Jalisco. Ball played for Chino Hills High School in California, where he won a state championship and achieved national success as a junior with his brothers Lonzo and LaMelo, who are both current NBA guards. A three-star recruit and UCLA signee, a 2017 suspension for shoplifting led him to forgo college basketball. Ball instead signed with Lithuanian professional team Prienai. He later played in the Junior Basketball Association (JBA), a league founded by his father, before joining the G League at the end of the 2019–20 season. He was briefly signed to the Detroit Pistons in late 2020, but was waived prior to the start of the 2020–21 season. Ball joined the Greensboro Swarm in 2021.
Ball and his brothers have attracted national attention since playing together in high school. His father, LaVar Ball, also grew into a media personality in 2017. Ball has a signature shoe with his father's company, Big Baller Brand, and a role on his family's Facebook Watch reality show Ball in the Family. His debut hip hop single "Tweaker" (2025) charted in several countries, leading him to sign a multi-million dollar record deal with Def Jam Recordings.
