LaMelo is the "superstar" of the three. Not in talent (TBD), but in star power.
Wouldn't be in Lavar's playbook to let UCLA/NCAA capitalize off of it. Liangelo is there because: there's no alternative. He's not an NBA caliber prospect.
However, the funny irony in this China saga is that...if this was just the other 2 guys and not Liangelo...this wouldn't even be HALFWAY as big of a story as it now. Annnnd we only care or even know who Liangelo is because of...
What Lonzo say?
Lacing up Under Armour's that he'd be forced to wear at UCLA instead of Melo Ball 1s sounds alot like slavin for free to me.
What else would he do though? Go overseas for a year or two or banking that the G-League will be set up by then?
