only real problem is he's ruffling feathers before lonzos in the nba

outside of that everything he's saying in terms of ownership is true and solid
 
Son gonna be hurt walking into the arena with a and 1 esque baggy jogging fit on and BBB headphones. All his draft mates gonna have on their cool saint Laurent distressed denim and red bottoms with custom beats.
 
Well here's the thing
Lavar seems to be active in Lonzo's life, is taking good care of him and his kids, and defends his kids
He's a good father

But he's just misguided on trying to be a business agent for Lonzo, as he has already burned a couple bridges with the big players of the athletic goods game as of late which hurts the net worth of Lonzo

I would recommend Lonzo seperate his business dealings from Lavar and family, as most of the time when families make deals for their kid, it tends to go wrong.

Good read....rest of article will be in the link below.

With the NBA draft on June 22, top prospects and athletic brands are beginning to engage in conversations about potential footwear and apparel endorsement deals. One of the players expected to be drafted at the very top of the board is UCLA star freshman point guard Lonzo Ball. He is represented by Harrison Gaines as part of the newly formed Ball Sports Group. Gaines is a former employee at Impact Sports, where he worked alongside primary agents on contracts for NBA players Kawhi Leonard and Will Barton. Ball is also being represented in brand negotiations by Ball Sports Group’s founder – his outspoken father, LaVar – sources told The Vertical.

Lonzo has received preliminary interest over the past year from the three current major sneaker brands outfitting NBA players: Nike, adidas and Under Armour. None of the brands have expressed a direct interest in LaVar’s “co-branding partnership” concept, which would license the family’s Big Baller Brand for Lonzo’s footwear to then be manufactured by a partner, multiple industry sources told The Vertical.

So far, Big Baller Brand has primarily sold screen-printed T-shirts, sweatshirts and embroidered hats on its web store, with prices ranging from $50-$100 per piece. The brand is targeting the $200 tier for its debut Big Baller Brand basketball sneaker, an industry source told The Vertical, which would presumably be Lonzo’s signature shoe for his rookie season. LaVar and associate Alan Foster reportedly have been developing the shoe over the past year.

Should Lonzo not reach an endorsement deal with any footwear brand and instead wear the family’s inaugural Big Baller Brand sneaker, it would be a first for a potential top-five selection. There’s no denying that LaVar’s push for a co-branded partnership with potential major brands has stifled what would otherwise be a highly competitive market for Lonzo, an industry source told The Vertical.
