Perhaps an exaggeration, but lost in all of the LaVar hate is the fact that he's putting his sons in a position to succeed. Typically, his sons would've had to hustle their asses off to even get half a chance. Inatead, they're being put on a fast track to stardom.
LaVar Ball: LiAngelo, LaMelo sign with agent, will play overseas

you mentioned distraction.
No teams trying to actually win their league over there would sign a 16 year old with no muscles or a fat 19 year old separately, let alone together
I’m BBB but this is not a good idea. Liangelo might actually shape up but Lamelo is clearly too spoiled to make this jump
Melo is still developing and why wouldn't some European team want the chance to capitalize off this ?
He can go there and drill down on his technical skills since that's what Euros do
Liangelo should have just gone to USC...
Eitherway we shall see how this all shakes out
The shyt could easily be a part of the show bruhThey're spoiled suburban kids who drive around in expensive sports cars all day long. Are they even built for living/playing overseasLavar fukkin' they lives up

Europe isn't a bad move for LaMelo because they will help develop his fundamentals, BUT LaVar will literally need to fall the fukk back. Those coaches/media/fans not putting up w/ his bullshyt over there.

Aussie is a top 5 league in the world. Liangelo isn't even good enough to play in the Philippines tbh. I can see him in a 2nd or 3rd division Spanish/French league. He'll get ate anywhere else.

If LiAngelo would’ve just put those Louie Vuttion shades down. Funny how one bad decision can lead drastic turn of events.

you must not realize how much money the Ball family is making right now. Even if they NEVER play bball, the BALL FAMILY is their brand and it's raking in dough, almost like the Kardashians
Their LIFE is the brand. Melo getting up in the morning and eating breakfast makes him money
y'all can say what you want.... and say that Lavar is messin up and maybe he is... depending on what the basketball career goals of his sons are.... but as far as making MONEY,
they got enough money right now to be set for the rest of their lives
they just tryna get more
and call me crazy, but Lavar been pulling off everything else he said he was going to do.... if he pulls this off too....don't be mad cause breh is doing it HIS WAY

wait... he wants melo to go play pro ball NOW ? not when he's 18 ? so much fail
this kid is nowhere near ready to be ballin with grown men. he doesnt have the skills yet but physically he is especially a long way off. AO is right, don't strip away his childhood like this.
this kind of reminds of the show Gomorra when gennaro's mom sent him overseas with south americans. he returned to Italy like
fukk lavar for this shyt

Uhh you all are aware that they can still declare for the draft being overseas and all, right? 
Like you do KNOW that there's American players who play overseas after HS and go into the NBA draft a year or two later, bypass college and going straight into the league?
What's the problem?
