People Are Going In Over LaVar Ball's $1 Billion Sneaker Deal Request for His Sons
As the weeks go on, it seems like LaVar Ball is getting more bold and daring with his comments.
After the father of UCLA standout Lonzo Ball and Chino Hills High School (Chino Hills, California) sensations LaMelo Ball and LiAngelo Ball already declared that Lonzo "will be better than Steph Curry" and that he himself would've defeated Michael Jordan 1-on-1 back in the day, LaVar is doubling down on his request of a $1 billion sneaker deal for his three sons.
Wait ... what?
To put it in perspective, LeBron James's lifetime deal with Nike is worth a reported $1 billion, so how is LaVar going to pull that off for his sons as a regular contract?
The mere request sent Twitter into hysteria, as they roasted father Ball with zero chill. Here's footage of LaVar confidently making his outrageous request followed by people dragging to hell and back for it.
