Twitter Is Destroying This Old Footage of LaVar Ball Playing Basketball
LaVar Ball talks an outrageous game, but his hoop skills need serious work.
Twitter is calling technical and flagrant fouls on the outspoken father of UCLA standout Lonzo Ball and Chino Hills High School (Chino Hills, California) sensations LiAngelo Ball and LaMelo Ball after footage from 2002 surfaced of him playing in a men's basketball league. The clip was uploaded by YouTube user David Lee, who claims to have played in the game. Worse than that, the footage was posted after Lonzo's UCLA was eliminated in the NCAA Tournament.
Watching nearly six minutes of this footage, it's clear that for all that talk, Mr. Ball has little game to back up his big mouth, as his low-lights completely drown out his highlights. Remember, this is the same guy who outlandishly predicted that he would have defeated Michael Jordan 1-on-1 back in the day. Hell no, bruh! Your level of trash talk is on MJ, but your game is straight out the YMCA! And thoroughly washed.
Here's the footage of LaVar Ball playing basketball followed by all the Twitter dragging that ensued.

One fan hit him with the most unsavory Charles Barkley comparison
No, not the Hall of Famer Charles Barkley. But that Chuck from Space Jam.
We need to talk to you about that $1 billion demand from sneaker companies
Well, Mr. Ball could still secure that bag for his sons. But we agree with that latter part about his game not being worth a dollar.
