LaVar Ball and his son LiAngelo Ball made headlines in November after LiAngelo was caught allegedly shoplifting in China and detained by the Chinese government.
President Donald Trump happened to be on a trip through Asia at the time and requested that Ball be released. LiAngelo then thanked Trump, but he later claimed he was forced by UCLA. LaVar then fired shots at Trump.
However, things aren’t turning out as LaVar would have hoped. In their pro debut in Lithuania against the Lietkabelis Panevezys, neither of the Ball brothers scored a single point. The two went a combined 0-for-7 from the floor, and their team, BC Prienai, lost, 95-86.
The one time LiAngelo managed to sink a shot, his foot was out of bounds:

And the only time LaMelo was able to make a shot was after the buzzer went off:

Lonzo Ball just won Christmas … going full Big Baller style, copping a $350k Rolls-Royce for his dad, LaVar, and his mom, Tina, … and their first ride was caught on video.
Ball unveiled the new ride on his social media, with the hashtag #ItsTheLeastICouldDo, although something tells us he knows he’s doing the most.
Just think of how much cash the family saved when Trump and the State Department negotiated the release of son LiAngelo who was busted and locked up with two other UCLA players shoplifting in China.
The senior Ball refused to thank Trump. – READ MORE
