For those that don't know this guy, his son Lonzo is a marginally talented college basketball player coming out of UCLA for the NBA draft. Good player, just nothing special. Well his father has been making the rounds for the last few months on sports shows making outlandish claims and predictions about his son, and basically making an *** of himself and trying to pimp his family and their "Big Baller" brand. Well today, they launched Lonzo Ball's first signature shoe. It is not made by Nike, Adidas, Reebok or any of the big companies. No it is made by a Chinese company, can only be ordered online and are on sale for the low introductory price of $495. Only in America.....

And a side not, he is also selling slides for $220
 
i saw the story last night. Morons! They compared three NBA player's shoes, Jordans, one of them, that totaled under $500. Sir Charles called them out to not gouge kids for their shoes. I wouldn't give those dipshits a $1 for their shoes or flip flops.
 
Lavar is only hurting his sons. If you were an nba team i would take him off the board
 
The guy is playing the media for all they are worth... pricing the shoes at $495 was to make them the talk of sports talk radio and tv. The original number of sales was supposedly 5,000 in the first day... It has been backed off to less than 300 sales though...lol
