LaVar Ball Big Baller Brand

In a totally precedented move, outspoken basketball dad LaVar Ball has said something ridiculous. The latest on his Big Baller Brand, according to Slam, comes via a live Instagram question and answer session in which he discussed making his own signature shoe.

"I just don’t know when I’m coming out with it yet. ‘The LaVar-iccis!’ Holler at your boy! But I will give you a tip," Ball said. "Make sure you save your money because they’re gonna be $1,500 or more. Cause I’m gonna design them and they’re gonna be fly. My bad—they’re gonna be baller-ized."

This sounds like hyperbole coming from Ball and not an actual plan that will be put in motion, but the man has been known to close the gap between those in the past, so perhaps a LaVar Ball signature model isn't totally out of the question.

The most recent signature sneaker unveiled by Big Baller Brand is the $395 shoe for LaMelo Ball.
