Vytautas Prienai presented jerseys to three Balls during their introductory press conference.
One for LiAngelo, one for LaMelo and one for…LaVar?
The Big Baller Brand founder and CEO was also given a jersey of the Lithuanian club team bearing the same jersey number he used when he played football for the New York Jets.

They will make their debut on Tuesday when Vytautas Prienai hosts Tsmoki-Minsk.
LiAngelo enrolled at UCLA but pulled out after being involved in a shoplifting incident in China before the season opener against Georgia Tech.
He and his two other teammates were slapped with an indefinite suspension before LaVar announced his withdrawal from the school.
The 16-year old LaMelo meanwhile was seeing action with Chino Hills high school before LaVar pulled him out to homeschool him. He was also supposed to suit up for UCLA but will instead focus on playing professional basketball.
LaVar in a press conference said his two sons will join their older brother Lonzo with the Lakers in the next two years. Lonzo was selected as the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft.
He became the youngest player to achieve a triple-double at 20 years and 15 days old when he recorded 19 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds in their 90-98 loss against the Milwaukee Bucks.
