Over the weekend LaVar Ball announced that . LaVar Ball was asked by Olgun Uluc about LaMelo Ball's plans following this season for SPIRE with
“I’m going to let you know the plan know so everyone can just stop. With college, I already knew what they were about to do. ‘We’re going to investigate, we’re not going to let him play until we let him play, LaVar.
