LaVar Ball is either lost his damn mind or is a marketing genius. Yesterday, The elder Ball unveiled Big Baller Brand’s new lineup of gear which includes Lonzo Ball’s $429 signature sneakers and $220 flip flops.
Ball’s pricing is comparable to the most expensive brands in the world.
The Lonzo Ball shoes cost as much as GUCCI LOAFERS.

If you can’t afford $429 sneakers or $220 flip-flops you’re not a “big baller” according to Ball.
Big Baller's loose! If you can't afford the ZO2'S, you're NOT a BIG BALLER! 💰
