    Yeah the Lakers aren't opting out of that deal. If anything he gets more money.

    top rookies usually get their extensions, so if he gets all from his rookie contract he is already at $48M. If he starts lining up contracts after that he should have plenty.

    Too bad his dad will spend it all for him

    Saw a teenager wearing a BBB hoodie playing NBA Jam on his phone on the Subway the other day.

    Jamal Crawford's little brother. He's bounced in and out of the league over the years and is currently riding the end of the Pelicans bench.

    was curious so looked up Oladipo since he was also a #2 pick, including his rookie extension, after the 20-21 season he'll be at $105.5mil all in, and that was with a "modest" 21mil/yr extension

    I don't honestly know. I can't say I envision Big Baller ever letting them go that route, too demeaning. Probably will find or establish a playground league or something and continue to hype himself.

    man i hope so. those 2 would be so out of place, shit the G league is full of guys who played in the NBA or were all-conference type players at a division 1 school. they would be the worst two players in the G league imo.

    That headline a bit misleading. The quote, speaking of the owners "It's their league. You don't wanna do it get out" and the article goes on to say TMZ caught up with Ball, who said he thinks the NFL went too far with the new rule, while acknowledging that a private company has a right to create and enforce its own policies.

    Also, the clip for some fucking reason ends with the reporter "one of Balls sons was arrested in China last year"

    LiAngelo Ball scored 53 points, LaMelo Ball has triple double for LA Ballers in JBA game

    ONTARIO, Calif. — LiAngelo Ball scored 53 points, leading the Los Angeles Ballers to a 171-140 victory over the Philadelphia Ballers in the Junior Basketball Association (JBA) on Thursday night.

    Three weeks after not getting selected in the NBA draft, and also failing to get an invitation to play in the Summer League or participate in the NBA G League developmental league, Ball punctuated his night with two alley-oop dunks in the final two minutes.

    "I feel good,'' LiAngelo Ball said during a postgame interview on the JBA broadcast on Facebook. "I wanted to come out and get the hang of things and it was a good win.''

    “Lonzo and him gonna fit together like a glove,” the Big Baller said in a recent interview with Overtime.

    "How you going to give Lonzo the best player in the game?”

    “How’s LeBron going to play point? Lonzo going to be pushing it and get it out of hand too quick. Lonzo can do all that dribbling, all (LeBron) got to do is run the lane and the pass will be right on the money. He doesn’t have to worry about dribbling 42 times coming down there and making a play. We’re going to be playing so fast that we’re throwing touchdown passes and he’ll be scoring all day. And when he’s not, he’ll be throwing the long passes to Lonzo for the 3-pointers, it’s very easy.”
