Shaq Released A LaVar Ball Diss Track Last Night, This World Is Hell
Friday night Shaq released a LaVar Ball diss track on TMZ. It would almost be worth losing Friday nights altogether if it meant you could bundle everything in that sentence up and hurl it into the garbage, forever. You cannot! And so the Shaquille O’Neal-LaVar Ball beef now has a soundtrack....

LaVar Ball Circus Interrupted By Basketball Game<em></em>
Now that Lonzo Ball is safely on the Lakers, the Lavar Ball media circus has finally started to slow down a bit.

What you will see in the video below is a referee at an AAU game calling a holding foul on a defender engaged in a trap near mid-court.

Joel Embiid Has No Regrets About Saying "Fuck LaVar Ball"

Lonzo Ball Will Be Fine
Summer League action made Jan Vesely look like an actual basketball player for two years in a row, so probably you should be wary of setting much stock by it.

Here's LaVar Ball Being Raucously Booed While Leaving The Draft
As expected, the Lakers selected UCLA point guard Lonzo Ball with the second overall pick of tonight’s NBA draft. As expected, his father LaVar Ball had some grand proclamations to make beforehand. (Mainly that he had it on the good authority of Zeus and Jesus themselves that Lonzo would be drafted ...

De'Aaron Fox's Dad Isn't Having Any Of LaVar Ball's Bullshit
De’Aaron Fox will almost certainly be a top-five pick in Thursday night’s NBA draft, although this draft is silly with point guards and he will likely be the third lead guard selected. It’s inevitable that Fox will be judged alongside Markelle Fultz, Lonzo Ball, and Frank Ntilikina as this class of ...

NBA commissioner Adam Silver joined Mike and his friend Mike on ESPN’s Mike & Mike this morning, where he spoke about the forthcoming NBA Finals, competitive balance in the league, and, of course, the basketball world’s slide magnate du jour, LaVar Ball.

Why The Hell Are Lonzo Ball’s Sneakers $495?
Yesterday, LaVar and Lonzo Ball unveiled the ZO2—the first sneaker from the semi-eponymous Big Baller Brand. The Balls came out with their own kicks because every major sneaker company had passed on signing Lonzo Ball, who is expected to be a high first-round pick in this year’s NBA Draft....

LaVar Ball Sucks, But That Doesn't Mean He's Wrong
LaVar Ball—the supremely annoying father of upcoming lottery pick Lonzo Ball, and two younger basketball teens—is in the headlines yet again.

LaVar Ball: UCLA Obviously Couldn't Have Won The Championship, They Have Too Many Slow White Boys

LaVar Ball Is A Great Showman And An Unabashed Dickhead
LaVar Ball is, to put it lightly, a lot to deal with. He’s an insane shit-talker, a genius marketer, and a shrewd businessman who has done a truly admirable job of promoting his children while sidestepping the NCAA’s bullshit amateurism rules. He’s also, plainly, a dickhead....

Here's Some Satisfying Video Of LaVar Ball Playing Basketball Badly
A rough weekend for the Balls, father and son. First, UCLA guard Lonzo Ball saw his Bruins eliminated in the Sweet 16, in a game in which Ball (10 points, eight assists, three rebounds) was soundly outplayed by Kentucky counterpart De’Aaron Fox (39-4-3). Ball then announced his plan to declare for t...
