NBA prospect Lonzo Ball and his father LaVar have been under fire since the $495 BBB signature ZO2 Prime shoe was unveiled, a show that was developed after deals with Nike, Adidas and Under Armour all fell through.
Another Sneaker pricing itself even higher than the controversy Air Jordan series is of course cause for concern when there are incidents of young men robbing each other and using violence to get a hold of such big ticket items. The BBB also stands for Big Baller Brand and is being marketed as a sneaker only for Big Baller’s!
But Lonzo does have someone who is showing him some respect, Seahawks’ Michael Bennett.
Michael got into a Twitter rush and tweeted out the following supports:
@Lavarbigballer I will buy 2 pair I respect what u doing
