Yeah the title was clickbait.

To be fair though, the article says that the status of Lavar and alan's friendship is unknown. It looks like Zo has grabbed his nuts and made all these decisions on his own. He even rehired the financial advisor that stopped working with BBB back in November. Did Lavar fire him?

idk if Zo and Var got problems, but it looks like Zo is growing up and taking more control. I'm interested to hear Lavar's side on all this, because TBH he should be publicly shytting on Alan and supporting Zo right now. Maybe we'll hear from Lavar in the next couple of days.

Either way it's important Zo gets all this settled now, cuz LaMelo could be in the G-League next season and the NBA the year after that. So shyt has to be right by the time Melo becomes a bigger part of the equation.
I think LaVar is probably proud as hell right.
He won't say it, but he must be happy to see his son becoming and man and handling his business.

I wonder at what point Foster saw Lavar and the Ball Family as a legit opportunity?

He became cool with Lavar in 2010. Lonzo would have just been 12 at the time. People are wondering why LaVar didn’t do a background check? Well they knew the guy when the friendship was actually genuine. There was no need for Foster to hustle the Ball family at the time.


Now Foster is watching Lonzo grow up. He’s becoming really good. At some point, he becomes convinced that this kid will probably go to the NBA. He goes into wolf mode. He plays the long con on Lavar.

Lukanga seems really genuine based on the article. I can see him gaining more clients based off this.

Friendship and business are two different things. I am lifelong friends with ex-convicts and even a couple that try to get by on the hot pyramid scheme of the time, but I would never, ever go into business with them.

"Sources close to the Ball family told ESPN that Lonzo expressed his concerns about Foster to his father several times over the past few months but deferred to LaVar to manage the situation."

I think this situation will spark Lonzo's financial and all around independence from his father.
The Ball family saw the devil but still they decided to built
The fukk? These nikkas let a convicted scammer run their company?? :mindblown: How fukking stupid can you be????
I know right. This news have my mind dumbfounded.:dwillhuh: The Ball see a wolf without masquerading in a sheep akin but still made a deal with the wolf. :why:

Magic made lavar fall back, and lavar feared he was about to get cut out the pot, then went into finesse mode as his last checks might've been in sights for him...
