A mother is suing Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball and the team.
Angell Joseph was 11 at the time. Now he's 12.
Tamaria McRae says last Oct. 7, after a Charlotte Hornets event, fans were outside the arena, going up to players as they left.
“[Angell] was like, ‘LaMelo, I love you. I love you, sign my ... give me your autograph. Can you sign it for me?' McRae told Action 9′s Jason Stoogenke.
She says Ball did not sign anything and drove off.
“I just seen my son kind of go down and I thought maybe he had dropped something,” she said.
But she says Angell had not dropped anything, that Ball had driven over his foot, breaking it.
NBA moment
They're also suing the Hornets. That day was the team's annual Purple and Teal Day and -- the family claims -- the team should have had more measures in place to protect fans who would be trying to get close to players.
