LaVar Ball And His Big Baller Team Quit An AAU Game After A Technical Foul Was Called
LaVar Ball’s got a new lesson for his AAU team: when the calls aren’t going your way, quit.
That’s what happened at a Big Ballers game over the weekend. At the Double Pump Best of Summer Tournament in California, Ball got angry at a foul call and repeated, “that’s not a foul, that’s not a foul.” According to USA Today, his team was up 69-60 and as Ball began to ramble after the call was made he decided to pull his team off the floor and exit the facility.
“Hey, let’s go, let’s go,” LaVar said to his team, waving the players — including youngest son LaMelo — to grab their belongings and leave the court. The foul, the technical, the exit and the other team’s reaction was all captured on video.
“I’m not gonna have my guys playing hard and they cheating,” Ball is heard saying amongst the initial madness. “I don’t play that s**t.”
This latest incident comes after Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid said “F**k LaVar Ball” during an Instagram Live session he also urged teammate Ben Simmons to dunk on LaVar’s son and new L.A. Lakers pointguard Lonzo. Of course Ball responded saying, “When you don’t win, and don’t even make the playoffs, and don’t even stay on the court long enough, that’s the best thing you can do — is tweet and make some stuff.”
Twitter also had their thoughts on what went down at the Big Ballers AAU game. Check out what they had to say and video of LaVar and his team’s exit below.
