LaVar Ball’s middle son, LiAngelo, withdrew from UCLA earlier this week, about a month after he and two teammates caused an international stir by getting arrested on shoplifting charges during a team trip to China. In September, Ball pulled his youngest son, LaMelo, from Chino Hills High School in California, announcing he would be home-schooled before eventually enrolling at UCLA like brothers LiAngelo and Lonzo, the eldest Ball son who now plays for the Los Angeles Lakers.
But LiAngelo won’t be returning to college basketball, and LaMelo apparently won’t ever get there. On Thursday, LaVar Ball told ESPN’s Jeff Goodman that both of his younger sons have signed with agent Harrison Gaines in the hope that a foreign professional team signs them as a package deal.
“I don’t care about the money,” LaVar Ball told Goodman. “I want them to go somewhere where they will play them together on the court at the same time. The priority is for the boys to play on the same team.”
According to Goodman, several teams in Europe and Asia (presumably not in China) have expressed interest in signing the Ball brothers.
