Marius Stonkus, CEO of http://Skycop.com, just told me that the company paid for the Ball family's flights from LA to Vilnius.

That was an insane scene when LaVar came through the doors. Photographers equipment spilled to the ground, media members falling down. One media person asked me if it was LeBron or Michael Jordan coming? I just laughed.

Just came down to get my first look at Prienu Arena in Lithuania -- the future homecourt of LiAngelo and LaMelo Ball. The brothers will practice tomorrow morning with the team for the first time.

LaMelo passing the ball far more than shooting it so far, while LiAngelo has looked more comfortable overall and has made some shots early in their first practice.

Not sure who put out report that LiAngelo Ball is playing tonight in Vilnius ... but it's incorrect. LiAngelo and LaMelo now not expected to travel for tonight's contest, LaVar Ball told ESPN.

Story out today that the Better Business Bureau, BBB has put out an F rating, the lowest possible, on Big Baller Brand(BBB) due to over 40 complaints of incorrect product, faulty product or no product at all being shipped when ordered and paid for. People are unable to get refunds, get ahold of anybody, one case the customer alleges being given a fake tracking number for his so called return.

maybe that's why Lavar is in Lithuania, he's hiding out.

I sure hope Lonzo didn't cosign on this since any legal action against the company would effectively come out of his wallet.

and Lavar Ball slammed the BBB saying that BBB is outdated as the yellow pages and BBB stands for Big Baller Brand.
