Not a day goes by without LaVar Ball making headlines for his insanely questionable decisions.
Today takes the cake.
Per ESPN's Darren Rovell, "Ball is funding the Junior Basketball Association through the Big Baller Brand with players being paid anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 per month."
Pay will be based on High School ranking and social media following. There are 6,717 players, who have been playing pro basketball overseas in last 5 years. Could the one and done player be better off playing in this league than going overseas? Could LaVar Ball actually be on to something here? Only time will tell.
As much as I can’t stand this guy I have to tip my hat to him. Big Baller Brand is taking the spot light and running with it.
get in where you fit in my man!
Phenomenal article. LaVar Ball is testing what oversees will do versus college for their professional careers. May be good or may end up just as bad.
