Have we heard the end of the Big Baller Brand yet, or have we just been lucky that Lavar has shut up. I hope I am not poking the hive with a stick!

I was also thinking about BBB recently, wondering if Lavarr made a mistake not keeping his younger sons in NCAA Division 1 so that their profile would remain high.

Their big undertaking is the Junior Basketball Association, his attempt to provide an alternative to the NCAA for high school-aged players.

Here's a Wikipedia recap of Season 1, which ended about a month ago with the Ball Brothers squad winning the title and LiAngelo winning MVP

They say now that they will play exhibition games against European teams.

It sounds like Season One wasn't a huge success and players are not receiving the pay and other inducements they were promised

Thanks for the update. One of the Ball kids was MVP? Shocking! Kind of like how Kim Jung-in* shoots a hole in one on every hole in golf.

* I know how to spell his name but I can't over-ride the spell checker...

I would compare it more to stirring up an ant hill ...
