The resurrection has started! According to Sporting News, LaVar Ball, father of New Orleans Pelican’s player, Lonzo Ball, has stated that his disheveled sneaker company, Big Baller Brand, is restructuring amid a fractured relationship with former business partner, Alan Foster.
“The Big Baller Brand is alive and well. The Brand has been restructuring, and we are working to reveal the new website in the next few weeks. It will have a new look and a new name. www.BigBallerBrandInc.com” LaVar Ball reveals on his Twitter account.
“Unfortunately, Alan Foster continues to try and leverage the Ball Family name for his own gain. Alan Foster is a convicted felon who served 7 years in jail for defrauding people out of their money. He is a thief and con man and cannot be believed or trusted.”
Back in March, Lonzo Ball told ESPN that he believes that Alan Foster, a friend of Lonzo’s father for almost a decade who owns 16.3% of Big Baller Brand, had “used his access to my business and personal finances to enrich himself. As a result, I have decided to sever all ties with Alan, effective immediately.”
“This has been a very difficult decision as I had a great deal of love and respect for Alan,” Lonzo said at that time. “But the time has come for me to take responsibility for my own career both on and off the court.”
According to documents and emails reviewed by ESPN, Lonzo’s financial adviser, Humble Lukanga of Life Line Financial Group, alleged in an October email that Lonzo’s and Big Baller’s taxes could not be completed on time due to an inability to account for the whereabouts of $1.5 million.
In the meantime, Foster has taken over the Big Baller Brand website and when you click on the site’s logo, it redirects you to his website, Alan Foster Official, where he advertises an online mentoring course via the Baller Financial Network.

Two Texas women thought it was a good idea to retaliate on behalf of a family member and severely beat up a 12-year-old girl. According to KWTX, Kyhirah Clemons, 32, and Chonda Edmond, 44, severely beat up a 12-year-old over a dispute she had with their relative at Kileen Middle School. Clemons and Edmond allegedly beat the girl with what looked like baseball bats. They were arrested last week and are being held on $100,000 bond and have been charged with causing injury to a child.
When police arrived at the scene of the incident, which occurred on June 12th, 2019, the victim was found on the ground.
Edmond is the classmate’s mother while Clemons identified herself as the girl’s aunt. The 12-year-girl told police that after school she had a physical altercation with Edmond and Clemons while an unidentified man and Edmond’s daughter were there. According to a court affidavit, the 12-year-old said “that both adult females had objects that looked like baseball bats and began to strike her with the objects.” She said she had an argument with Edmond’s daughter earlier that day.
Edmond told police that Clemons isn’t the girl’s aunt but “is a close friend that she refers to as a sister and is her only family member that lives locally.”
The girl later identified Clemons and Edmond in a photo lineup. There is also a video showing the altercation between Edmond and the child in front of the middle school.

As reported in Variety this afternoon, Tina Tchen – CEO and president of Time’s Up – has released a statement asking for NBCUniversal to release all of its employees from their NDAs so that they may speak “without any fear of retaliation.” This statement was sparked by the announcement Rachel Maddow made on her show Friday evening that the media conglomerate will release former employees if they first contact their legal department.
Tchen tweeted out: “There is no reason to place the burden on those who choose to speak to reveal themselves in advance to NBCUniversal. This is an example of the burdens that perpetuate fear and silence, no matter what new policies and trainings may say.” She also called for them to hire outside (and objective) investigators to look into their practices, tweeting “workplace harassment remains hidden not just by direct retaliation, but also when there is a fear that anyone who speaks or reports will be silenced.”
