LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball didn't start for Vytautas in the team's 118-96 loss to Zalgiris on Sunday, and unsurprisingly, LaVar Ball wasn't happy about it.
The players' father discussed his disappointment with head coach Virginijus Seskus, per Lithuanian journalist Donatas Urbonas:
[see picture]
The American duo combined for 44 points in the defeat to the defending league champions.
LiAngelo led all scorers with 25 points, while LaMelo added 19 points and six assists.
Unfortunately, the team continued to struggle, with its ninth straight loss dropping it to 4-18 on the season, worst in the league. While Vytautas was successful against lower-level competition during the Big Baller Brand Challenge, it hasn't been against LKL opponents.
Frenchmen L’Orangell’o & L’Monjell’o.

Worst. Sports dad. Ever.
Who the hell are LaVar, LaMelo and LiAngelo?
LaVar is in a downward spiral heading for a big crash.

This family is garbage.
I tend to agree. As soon as this season ends in Europe, he’ll try to push both kids to some upper-level club in Spain or Italy....finding that no one wants the LaMelo/LiAngelo problems. After a second season in this dismal atmosphere, I think both kids will be fed up with basketball, and just come back to the US to enroll in college without any more attachment to basketball. At that point, like you say...LaVar will go into a spiral crash.
Shatanya told me the shopliften is not so good in Lithuania. They were getting failing grades in UCLAs Shoplifting 101. This is what passes for news in 2018.
LaVar is a really bad dad, but probably not as bad as Todd Marinovich's dad.
My Dad said he traded me to the gypsies for a three legged cat.
He said the gypsies brought me back the next day and put a curse on him.
*******************************************************************
You too? Now I dont feel so bad.
So THAT'S where this cat leg came from ...
Sometimes, I wonder whatever happened? to my old gypsy tribe.
Did Grandma Mashkie ever find her missing crystal ball? Youd think she would have seen that coming.
Did Uncle Bredor ever become a champion bowler after he stole Grandma Mashkies crystal ball and drilled three finger holes in it?
Did Tipsy the three legged cat ever find true happiness or a slow mouse?
ninth straight loss dropping it to 4-18 on the season, worst in the league.
About as good as the lakers
The only way to avoid a gypsy curse is to bury that cat leg near an Oak tree at midnight when there is a full moon.
That, or buy my book I Was Traded To The Gypsies For A Three Legged Cat.
Its available at most of your finer pet stores.
Your’s is one of THE best thread hijackings ever. LOL
Please don’t Judas me.
My wife claims to be of gypsy descent.
She looks at my palm and goes,
Oh! Bad news! Looks like youre going to be broke again!
And rushes down to the fancy baby store to buy her granddaughter a $10,000 diamond encrusted pacifier.
And Im stuck looking at my palm and thinking,
Why doesnt she ever see her old bat mother flying South for the winter?
