Essentially from their birth, LaVar Ball has been hyping up his sons: potential 2017 top draft pick Lonzo, and his brothers LiAngelo and LaMelo. LaVar's endless hype machine is built on outlandish claims and exaggerations, but while his plan has its merits, it also has received plenty of criticism.

Ball is seeking a $1 billion sneaker deal with Nike, which the company likely won't give him. Nike is however, interested in signing Lonzo to a sponsorship deal — but given how much disdain Raveling has for his father, that possibly could change if he puts his foot down.
