Report: LaVar Ball and family to star in Facebook documentary series
Scott Gleeson
What do you get when you combine the biggest social media platform with the most outspoken father in basketball?
A Facebook-driven documentary series on LaVar Ball and his family.
According to Deadline, Facebook has approved a yet-to-be-titled series about the Balls as part of an ongoing push for more high-quality video content.
LaVar’s outlandish comments, which include him touting that he could beat Michael Jordan one-on-one, have made him a polarizing figure in sports culture. Lonzo Ball, LaVar’s eldest son, was drafted No. 2 overall in the NBA draft and is the new face of the Los Angeles Lakers. The middle son, LiAngelo, is set to be a freshman at UCLA, and the youngest son, LaMelo, is a junior in high school.
