One fan joked, "had to sacrifice that leg for Gelo's success".

LiAngelo Ball's professional basketball prospects were limited but he's launched himself into stardom with his hit single, "Tweaker," which was released in January. The track has brought LiAngelo to a myriad of different stages, from a halftime performance at an NFL playoff game to this year's Rolling Loud lineup.

LaVar Ball has emphatically supported the song, singing its catchy hook in numerous videos.

LaVar Ball hasn't stopped smiling in spite of serious medical issue

LaVar Ball, who ascended to prominence through his Big Baller Brand and the success of his three sons, Lonzo, LiAngelo and LaMelo, hasn't lost his bravado despite suffering an amputation. The news came suddenly when Ball, 53, had his right foot amputated in February due to a "serious medical issue."

The businessman and media personality hasn't shied away from showing himself online following the incident. Recently, on March 5, LaVar released a video on Instagram of him dancing along to Haddaway's song, "What Is Love?"

In the video, Ball is dancing and waving his arms to the iconic 90s song while singing along to some of the lyrics. At the end of the video Ball playfully modifies the signature line, "Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me ... no more" to:

"Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me ... my foot," which Ball said before laughing.

LaVar Ball's attitude throughout this process, and in the face of losing his foot, serves as an example of how a powerful mindset can get people through the most difficult of adversities. The inspiring nature of his positive demeanor over the past month is reflected in the outpouring of support Ball has received.
