hope they do eventually get in the nba, but even if they don't i hope nothing but success for them. Lavar seems like a brave, happy guy and the kids are all polite and respectful. I don't know what happened to LiAngelo's case, but i think it's just bad influence from his friends and trying to act tough.
Say what y’all want, i know Lavar is proud. All three of his sons are playing professional basketball, two of them are playing on a court with their family brand logo in the middle. as a father, Lavar did his job 💪🏾
jake wagner Same of those guys will be future Zalgiris 1st team players, with Zalguiris being a Top-16 team in the Euroleague, which is considered by experts the second best league un the world after the NBA... Or some of those kids may be even future European stars so... PS: Lavar a savage. He may be arrogant, rude... But we gotta admit he is still a great dad and a motherfucking marketing genious.
The Litnews That was nothing but haters. Everyone I know who ordered from BBB got their merchandise on time. How is it even possible to not even get one positive review? It was probably the Trump administration.
This is why i thougth lamelo could be a great player, see him in a system, with a true coach and you see his weaknesses but also how much potential he has
Alvaro Anton that talent they were playing didn’t look like much at all. But he did have a couple great passes. I need to see it on the collegiate level against players we have heard of.
What happens as you get older and your game develops more! people criticize him and rightfully so for his poor shot selection, but hes supposed to be a junior in HS. He'll learn!
LaMelo such a goof @ the interview LOL. But he's only 16, already playing pro ball. LiAngelo showing how he can dominate with his size and 3pt ability...it's like Chino Hills in Lithuania all over again! #🅱🅱🅱
pro ball? u need a reality check. the team they played in doesn't even play in the top tier Lithuanian league. its like their d-league. and this game is NOT even a game in that league. this is a BBB mini tournament consist of young 18 years old players. LiAngelo dominate? well sure considering he probably is the oldest and the largest player there. if he didn't dominate, he should just stop playing ball and consider other career choices. this is just one of lavar's genius marketing scheme. nothing more..
UrbannMatt he's always been talented its just that in the Chino Hills system he played in had him shooting 30 shots per game due to the offense. So blame chino not melo.
D 1990 because the people on Facebook saw the full game and not just the highlights lol. Melo has a few nice plays but he had just as many bricks and turnovers. I don’t see him playing much in the real league if he doesn’t improve a lot.
D 1990 people actually watched the full game as did I on FB. Some only came here to spread their hate. The more haters you got the more successful you are.
yes lots of people are comparing the brothers to michael jordan and lebron james. personally i think lamelo shoots better than steph curry. itll be crazy to see all three brothers dominating the nba playing for the lakers with dad ball as the head coach. this is the new era of an evolving game. wow i cant wait to see this
john martin all melo has to do is take shots that have a chance of going in and then maybe he can be better than steph curry. still pretty amazing for 16 years old though
has a poor shot and isnt that athletic. he has a knack for the game tho. gelo has the best mechanics but is the least athletic lol and lamelo is right in the middle of lonzo of gelo. i dont think either will be stars in the nba
People need to realize that this game was against a youth team. Meaning these players are all 17 and under. If any of you follow soccer in Europe, Basketball is run in a similar way over there. Professional teams have youth systems where they develop players and compete against other youth teams. Also these first 5 games are sponsored by Big Baller Brand, they are just exhibition games that don't mean much.(I was wrong in my last sentence the first five games aren't BBB games.)
The Flight Boyz I'm not hating, I'm a fan of the Ball family and what they are doing. I'm just holding out my judgement till they actually play a professional European team. All I did was state facts in my previous comment.
Šhane Mãtã he's always had the potential no one should question talent but here he's forced into a system that if he tries that half court nonsense he's getting benched from here it's growth and development he's only 16 damn
I'm from europe and obvisouly a watcher of a lot of european games of different levels (from national leagues to euroleague). I can tell you that it looks a pro game but Rytas showed up and played one of their youth team. It doesn't take away that they both played well, it just puts the perf in perspective, they played angainst high schoolers. All I wish for them, with all the bullshit and drama that goes around them, is that they perform well and are happy on court. They seem to be taking on the challenge properly and I seriously wish them the best.
LaMelo Ball made history today by becoming the youngest American to go pro in Basketball. And he played in his own sneakers named after him on a court with his family's business all over it. WOW!!! ... I think he will be all over commercials, tv shows, and movies after the season ends.
In this BBB tournament, they will play just one first division, all pro team - Dzukija, that is now at 8 spot in LKL. Other teams, like Žalgiris-2 or Lietuvos Rytas-2 plays in third division, or second division, like Vytis or Jonava.
Lmfao ..you are clueless !!! More skilled !? That's like saying wnba players are more "skilled" and fundamentally sound. You're ignoring SIZE and ATHLETICISM !!!
1/3 the NBA is European.... also I've been around basketball lots. The best skills win period.[You'll see the fast kid trying to steal the ball, cross over. Your good.] The fact is that most people have terrible habits/skills and need to rely on height weight ECT. let's see why they have a shot. 1) they have access to elite athletic training, 2] there diets are probably figured out. 3) there big bro is in the league for God sake.[You know how much shit u would learn if you hung out with an NBA player.......] But here's something you'll like. I don't like the dad at times but the games speak. They will need to adapt to the higher levels along with everyone else but You're missing the point that there doing it. They are on the journey now. Working hard. Hopefully this story and the way things are playing out is seen as inspiring. Bbb might break the walls for younger players to make $.. go melo and gelo
Been telling people for over a year that I think Lamelo has more potential out of his brothers, and it looks like he's showing it more and more every time he plays. And he's only 16.
YaBoi Rob his dad said he would end up the best one. He has the point guard skills zo has , and the shooting gelo has. However zo has the athleticism and defense.
Yeah he was. But still needs to improve his game. He's very limited on offense. Most of the baskets were lay-ups and shots under the rim made right after a pass from LaMelo. Gelo did great tho!
Alot of people were on that livestream hating, but Lamelo actually could play on an NBA level because if you saw the full game he played team ball and balled out Gelo is gonna get there he just needs a little bit of more work because the post game isnt gonna work in the NBA
oWayWard - to make the comparison of a nba beating a Lithuania team is shit cause any nba team will beat any team out of their league. And of course they’re not nba ready rn, that is the whole point why they’re in Lithuania playing pro ball to gain experience.
Maurice Terrell Maurice Terrell I know right LeMelo scored 10 and everyone is calling him a future NBA all time great. LiAngealo scores 19 and everyone act like he doesn’t exist. It’s sad.
Its smart by Melo to realize that he should get Gelo looking good infront of everyone to raise his draft stock, as well as raising his own draft stock because now scouts realize he is more than just a shooter, he can pass too. BBB
I must say it's crazy how much attention these two have put on these leagues overseas....they got me watching international basketball ....something I never watched before ....I was pleased with what i saw....ready for the next game!
i think playing in europe was actually a good idea for the balls. sharing the ball, smarter shots, learning how to fit in any situation. If liangelo and lamelo keep improving at this rate, they might have a shot in the nba
Melo might be the best out of the brothers. Obviously Lonzo is the better one at the moment, but Melo is only gonna get better. He’s an aggressive scorer with vision like his brother. Gelo is talented as well
Steve Sorry you don't know shit about basketball. Liangelo is shit! He is like 100th ranked in his class. Melo doesn't have the athleticism or brains of his brother Lonzo
would say lamelo is mechanically better, his lefty game is strong. Julian lacks size and you know what that means lacking in defense because he gets overran by bigger dudes since kids these days in basketball are big as hell. wouldn't say Julian is entirely trash but he needs to fix his cockiness because that can affect how people see him.
Don't know why but I just feel compelled to root for these young men, I know their Dad is over the top but they are humble and I want to see them make it to the league.
This was great to watch props to Lavar for putting this on. Want to see them play some of the top tier teams the announcers were saying that green team was all kids ages 16 - 17.
Just here to say LaMelo is playing against junior team of Zalgiris, their second team. That mean all players are same age as LaMelo or older one year and they are all younger than LiAngelo. Btw idk is there any players from this team that are currently playing for their national U18 squad so they are nothing special.
If Gelo has any hoop dreams, he's gonna need to work on that left hand. A 6"6' guy only using his right in the post isa recipe for disaster. I am rooting for these guys.
They actually role played really well. Saw melo being very selfless with the ball and gelo with some nice post work. Melo crashing for rebounds. Glad to see the boys doing well
Fellows Americans, I live in Lithuania, so I will give you some light on what's happening here. Ball brothers are playing for the worst LKL(1st league) team. Yesterday they played against Žalgiris-2, which is a youth team of one of LKL's teams. That team consists of 16-18y olds, for better understanding it's weaker than ncaa team. So basically, pro team with melo and gelo barely won against some youth team. And for even better understanding, their pro team lost few days ago by 57 points to another lithuanian pro team, so if you ask me, they have no chance of playing even in our pro league, forget about NBA for now. On a bright note, Melo is still pretty young and showed some good pitch vision and delivered some good assists, apart from that it was a complete shitshow, cheers.
Marijushftw ok so their team lost by 57 points, when they didn't play and won by 10 with them. Sounds like European version of the AAU. Players go pro at 14 in Lithuania, so those kids had 3-4 years of professional experience and lost to two Americans that played their first professional game. The Ball brothers played on the #1 ranked HS team in North America. However, they don't play team basketball in HS, they give the ball to the best player and watch him score. LaMelo is the best player and what I saw on the live game is that he only took 5 shots. 5 twos and 5 threes. Gelo hasn't played a game since March and Melo hasn't played a game since June. So we watched two Americans play in a foreign country where they don't speak the language with teammates that suck and didn't set screens or run plays for them. They're both definitely going to the NBA. We have several current NBA players whom averaged 2-5 points per game their entire first and second years playing professional in Europe as 15 and 16 year olds. These kids did way better than that and they're not even accustomed to that weird style of play.
+paul hogans feel sorry for u bro... They are not pro players. People finish highSchool and most of them go to further education institution. You should do the same because u struggle with simple reasoning. I don't know where they played before but there, they not shining. Opponent team leader dropped 31 pts against them. Pro Teams like BC Zalgiris would destroy them. (not zalgiris-2).
Your facts sir are not reasoned by anything. First of all they are in the country where every teen speaks english, there is no language barrier for them. Secondly, players in Lithuania don't go pro at 14, i have no idea where you took this information from, do us a favor and give us some facts on this. Then again, you say that they will be DEFINITELY in NBA, wowow hold on, your boy gelo can't finish wide open lay up on a fast break in a game where they are playing against some reserve teens, but you know, you are probably one of the best nba coaches so you know better.
I don't care if they scored one point each. I don't care if they played a bunch of 13 year olds. LaMelo Ball got PAID to play a game of basketball and made history as the youngest American ever to be paid to play a game of basketball. Additionally, if you're struggled to understand the word "professional", you could've used an online dictionary to assist you. I will do you a favor and save you the ten seconds. PROFESSIONAL: A person who is PAID for an activity.
Okay. Damn I was impressed with Lamelo. 16 and in the pros is great for his development. Just wish he could go to college too!! I genuinely believe with the passing ability he showed and natural feel for the game he has the potential to go to the NBA. Baring mind he is only 16!!!!! Reminds me of a flashier version of Lonzo.
Zalgiris-2 is a team made upf with high school students (between 16 and 17 years) and they went up against a professional team... and they only lost by 10! That is what is amazing from this video
Thats because you don't know shit. Lonzo is by far the best of the three. Lamelo might not even make the NBA. He wasn't even the best player on his high school team
Musty Waters Lonzo is kinda ass! But he is MUCH more talented, athletic and smarter then Lamelo. If Lonzo is not doing that good in the NBA, Lemelo has no chance
They are fun to watch..i think lavar is a genius for taking his boys overseas..i bet those teams can hang with some college and high schools here in the usa..good competition to get better
I copy and paste this comment from one guy who comes from Lithuania. "Ok I'm a lithuanian and I watched the game on facebook and I saw alot of weird american comments. Ok so first of all this isnt "Europe 1st division" game, watch euroleague for some good european basketball, or even Eurocup, or playoffs of spanish, greek, turkish, lithuanian, serbian, french leagues. The game was played against Zalgiris junior team, they play in NKL. When you guys heard ball brothers are gonna get play time in BBL league when they signed the contract and said stuff like "lol they're gonna play in the d-league" of lithuania then NKL would be like Z-league. And even lithuanian league is nothing special, prienai and other bottom tier teams have low budgets with players from highschools and similar. Idk about liangelo much, he doesn't seem to be very good... Next I saw alot of you talking about the basketball arena/gym. Of course it isn't big it's in a town with a 10000 population. What do you expect? Google "Zalgiris arena". 30km from prienai and it's one of the biggest in europe with 15000+ capacity. How many american cities with 300k population have 15k basketball arenas? Siemens arena in Vilnius as well. As for ball brothers, I like them alot especially their dad Lavar and i love the shit he says and his personality in general. Lamelo was fun to watch, made some really nice passes. I hope both brothers succeed and go to NBA. Also you guys should look up on youtube "Sharas does america (2004)"" This is the real Zalgiris team: ua-cam.com/video/c3QEoEw5dT4/v-deo.html
Had to re-upload lol.. But y'all can watch the FULL GAME at www.FB.com/BallislifeTV
Ballislife lamelo is playing like a smart player now that he’s in this league
You missed one of LaMelo's layups btw
Are you going to video all their games? I'll donate to ypur page for real.
Killa Mike I just watched the whole game and well I see what you mean
Killa Mike it’s all about the w
I can't be the only one who gets genuinely happy seeing the ball family succeed. Great start to them both. And thx ballislife.
Young Flyer I thought I was the only one bro 😭💯
Same bro I'm happy for them but some people hate
Young Flyer facts bro
Young Flyer facts😭😂
hope they do eventually get in the nba, but even if they don't i hope nothing but success for them. Lavar seems like a brave, happy guy and the kids are all polite and respectful. I don't know what happened to LiAngelo's case, but i think it's just bad influence from his friends and trying to act tough.
Say what y’all want, i know Lavar is proud. All three of his sons are playing professional basketball, two of them are playing on a court with their family brand logo in the middle. as a father, Lavar did his job 💪🏾
JayMillyVisuals i swea 💯
I like lavar but his boys beat a bunch of 16 and 17 year old kids by 10
jake wagner those kids are considered one of the best in their age group plus they are pros
jake wagner Same of those guys will be future Zalgiris 1st team players, with Zalguiris being a Top-16 team in the Euroleague, which is considered by experts the second best league un the world after the NBA... Or some of those kids may be even future European stars so...
PS: Lavar a savage. He may be arrogant, rude... But we gotta admit he is still a great dad and a motherfucking marketing genious.
Facts 💯💯💯
Honestly I'm happy for them both
both? or all tree of yall!! MELO, GELO, LAVARLO
Same. I just want all the kids to succeed. But the moves the dad does makes me scratch my head.
Koala Biscuits me too fr
Koala Biscuits better than the viewing Lakers game that's for sure.
You the goat for this footage
Watch their games on live on Facebook. For full game
Cannon Savage that's a fact Brooklyn outchheaa
It was like 100k so he could stream this and he was the only one who dude stream for us.
Overtime posted a full highlights of the team including warmups
*Lil God - Gangsta knowledge* .
Lavar Ball has the marketing plan of a God
The ZigyGod yep. BBB going international.
He got a F by the better business bueruo though
haters just trying to slow down lavar ball
The ZigyGod facts
The Litnews
That was nothing but haters. Everyone I know who ordered from BBB got their merchandise on time. How is it even possible to not even get one positive review? It was probably the Trump administration.
This is why i thougth lamelo could be a great player, see him in a system, with a true coach and you see his weaknesses but also how much potential he has
Alvaro Anton This comment should be #1
Alvaro Anton that talent they were playing didn’t look like much at all. But he did have a couple great passes. I need to see it on the collegiate level against players we have heard of.
Alvaro Anton if Melo at 16 is playing Pro will he be eligible for college still?
Ray Black I'd say no cause he has to graduate from some kind of HS for being eligible for college
no, once you play at any pr level you forfeit your amateur status in that sport.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN LAMELO PASS SO MUCH !!!!
Harden Defense he shown flashes of it in highschool
What happens as you get older and your game develops more! people criticize him and rightfully so for his poor shot selection, but hes supposed to be a junior in HS. He'll learn!
Jeffrey Aguirre he suppose to be a sophomore but he is a junior
Wait so now he overseas is he still homeschool or do he go to school out there
big facts
LaMelo such a goof @ the interview LOL. But he's only 16, already playing pro ball. LiAngelo showing how he can dominate with his size and 3pt ability...it's like Chino Hills in Lithuania all over again! #🅱🅱🅱
Dominate what? This game was against Under 18 Zalgiris team!
Rick Sanchez with 9 assists. he did his duty
John Johnnyson 6 assist and 7 to actually
They’re basically playing D3 talent
pro ball? u need a reality check. the team they played in doesn't even play in the top tier Lithuanian league. its like their d-league. and this game is NOT even a game in that league. this is a BBB mini tournament consist of young 18 years old players. LiAngelo dominate? well sure considering he probably is the oldest and the largest player there. if he didn't dominate, he should just stop playing ball and consider other career choices.
this is just one of lavar's genius marketing scheme. nothing more..
lamelo got so much better
UrbannMatt he's always been talented its just that in the Chino Hills system he played in had him shooting 30 shots per game due to the offense. So blame chino not melo.
Rumors say he and lavar went to the time chamber
Either that or the competition is ass...
accurate
Dang lamelo passing the rock more than often and getting money
They on a BBB court😂
Cannon Savage I didn't even notice..The Balls taking over Lithuania
Didn’t even notice yo
Lmaoooo
Cannon Savage it’s a sponsor but why Is it so big😂😂(maybe it’s not a sponsor maybe they just put it there cos BBB for life)
it says BBB games so I guess Lavar set up a showdown/tournament type thing.
Why he say it so casual like that “melo just wants to break some ankles” 😂😂
RonyVlogs you feel meh 😂😂😂
this comment section made me happy..so much positivity go on Facebook and its the total opposite and full of hate
D 1990 because the people on Facebook saw the full game and not just the highlights lol. Melo has a few nice plays but he had just as many bricks and turnovers. I don’t see him playing much in the real league if he doesn’t improve a lot.
D 1990 people actually watched the full game as did I on FB. Some only came here to spread their hate. The more haters you got the more successful you are.
D 1990 that’s cuz Facebook is where all the old people are
yes lots of people are comparing the brothers to michael jordan and lebron james. personally i think lamelo shoots better than steph curry. itll be crazy to see all three brothers dominating the nba playing for the lakers with dad ball as the head coach. this is the new era of an evolving game. wow i cant wait to see this
john martin all melo has to do is take shots that have a chance of going in and then maybe he can be better than steph curry. still pretty amazing for 16 years old though
mark my word lamelo is for sure going to nba. he's actually too good
Bro this is not even the equivalent of college basketball.
gonna be average at best in the nba if he doesnt fix his shot, same with zo
Alec Cario being an average in the NBA is an achievement in itself
CircleJerk The euroleague level is higher, than college but this team dont go to euroliga i think
has a poor shot and isnt that athletic. he has a knack for the game tho. gelo has the best mechanics but is the least athletic lol and lamelo is right in the middle of lonzo of gelo. i dont think either will be stars in the nba
Lamelo got alot of what Lonzo has. Very high IQ
He actually does have the most potential of the 3. Good first game that's for sure
House Flipping Guide he's better than lonzo
3:11
House Flipping Guide his stealing skills aren't so good
Angel Ortega don't expect many 16 year olds to make a near full court lob pass to the post
Lavar said entertaining and he delivered no less. Lamelo was lit
It is crazy how Lavar has been able to just erase paths and create new ones out of thin air. You do not see anyone else with this kind of power.
Real shii though. I be amazed everytime his business skills are absolutely remarkable
Our great lord and savior can I get a amen

The guy literally said that some dude is 33 years old and is the oldest player on the team....
Lmao that man snapped for no reason
Wow I’ve never seen melo have so much iq
Šhane Mãtã he's always had the potential no one should question talent but here he's forced into a system that if he tries that half court nonsense he's getting benched from here it's growth and development he's only 16 damn
Šhane Mãtã lmao what he’s been good since freshman year
Šhane Mãtã bruhhh watch his actually highlighfs he gets hella assists
Relax bro it’s called highlights for a reason they don’t show the bad stuff
I hardly saw melo attempt a three the whole game
Gelo is the most underrated ball bro u can tell he's been working on his game👌
gelo would suck in the nba, to slow to play guard to short to play post
I'm from europe and obvisouly a watcher of a lot of european games of different levels (from national leagues to euroleague). I can tell you that it looks a pro game but Rytas showed up and played one of their youth team.

This isn't pro basketball. Just USA media making that claim.
You guys have no clue what is professional bball it seems.
U. Sound like a swedish person that just learned English
paul hogans pro? he's not playing with grown man
Everyone says European teams are whack but they are the most skilled. These boys will be very refined when they hit the league
dyn meds no they are not
Lmfao ..you are clueless !!! More skilled !? That's like saying wnba players are more "skilled" and fundamentally sound. You're ignoring SIZE and ATHLETICISM !!!

1/3 the NBA is European.... also I've been around basketball lots. The best skills win period.[You'll see the fast kid trying to steal the ball, cross over.

Been telling people for over a year that I think Lamelo has more potential out of his brothers, and it looks like he's showing it more and more every time he plays. And he's only 16.
YaBoi Rob his dad said he would end up the best one.
He has the point guard skills zo has , and the shooting gelo has.
However zo has the athleticism and defense.
YaBoi Rob that team played no defense they want make on the NBA .foh
يا
YaBoi Rob
YaBoi Rob YES YES YES YES 👍
You can tell lamelo is getting smarter with the ball playing team basketball honestly
hes nasty imo
Yall keep talking about lamelo look at liangelo he was ballin cmon now
Surpreme_Kiddo Escen lamelo >
Yeah he was. But still needs to improve his game. He's very limited on offense. Most of the baskets were lay-ups and shots under the rim made right after a pass from LaMelo. Gelo did great tho!
Surpreme_Kiddo Escen they were playing against under18 of zalgiris xD
G
Surpreme_Kiddo Escen it's cause Melo is only 16 while Gelo is 19 so he's getting more recognition since he's younger balling out
The fact that he is 16 is fucking crazy like only real hoppers can understand also after watching this liangelo really underrated
Ballislife boutta get there views back. No need for julian newman
RugratGaming ikr like that dude is so overrated smh 🤦♂️
Bro straight forward lamelos' s passing crisp af Boii dishing dimes
Alot of people were on that livestream hating, but Lamelo actually could play on an NBA level because if you saw the full game he played team ball and balled out Gelo is gonna get there he just needs a little bit of more work because the post game isnt gonna work in the NBA
Yungtt13 true gelo is just slow when he runs if he trains being quicker and faster than possibly
Maurice Terrell Some of them are teenagers too but most are grown men. Don’t forget that they are also teenagers
lol and gelo and melo are basically teens too
oWayWard - to make the comparison of a nba beating a Lithuania team is shit cause any nba team will beat any team out of their league. And of course they’re not nba ready rn, that is the whole point why they’re in Lithuania playing pro ball to gain experience.
Maurice Terrell Maurice Terrell I know right LeMelo scored 10 and everyone is calling him a future NBA all time great. LiAngealo scores 19 and everyone act like he doesn’t exist. It’s sad.
This is Dope
Its smart by Melo to realize that he should get Gelo looking good infront of everyone to raise his draft stock, as well as raising his own draft stock because now scouts realize he is more than just a shooter, he can pass too. BBB
they suck, they played against a 17-18 yr old team,
I must say it's crazy how much attention these two have put on these leagues overseas....they got me watching international basketball ....something I never watched before ....I was pleased with what i saw....ready for the next game!
i think playing in europe was actually a good idea for the balls. sharing the ball, smarter shots, learning how to fit in any situation. If liangelo and lamelo keep improving at this rate, they might have a shot in the nba
Too bad it didnt stop Ntilikina from becoming a bust
Quiet what do you mean "who would sign them"? you realize Lavar already has 3 sons playing pro ball right now including 1 in the NBA lol
It was an exhibition game against 16 to 19 yr olds..chill out with the improving at this rate..
Real good to see them playing, it’s been a while since we seen gelo perform like he did in this game, proud moment for the ball family
I kinda like their ball graphic transitions for replays 2:30
NBA take notes
This shows true dedication from Ballislife. Sending someone that far to film a game just shows
Gelo is a talented scorer, but LaMelo is really something special, especially at 16.
against other kids his own age? u know this was a youth game, they are average players
felt like yesterday when lavar landed in lithuania and the airport was full of reporters. Been almost 3 years crazy how time flies
I came from Australia to watch this game
JaydenDivision Damn...
JaydenDivision Big Baller Jayden
Dman ur rich
Love seeing Lavar happy and most of all the mom, god bless her health
Melo is going to be INSANE when his 19. Gelo will be a great 6th man in the NBA.
@iONLY And you're right
2021
⛹️♂️
@@robbinjefferson7470 comment aged well didn't it😂😂
@@ionly6805 YOU CALLED IT😁
They both so really good. And to add if you didnt know, they play against like real grown men. Shows how talented they are. 🔥
MonteRoseII Gaming no they played against kids but good try, doesn’t take away how talented they are but it’s not great comp
Melo might be the best out of the brothers. Obviously Lonzo is the better one at the moment, but Melo is only gonna get better. He’s an aggressive scorer with vision like his brother. Gelo is talented as well
Gelo has zero % chance of even being a starter in collage. Melo doesn't have close to Lonzo's talent
ben1ben2ben1 sorry you feel that way
Steve Sorry you don't know shit about basketball. Liangelo is shit! He is like 100th ranked in his class. Melo doesn't have the athleticism or brains of his brother Lonzo
ben1ben2ben1 sure
Cam Watson What your point? Lonzo may be a flop, but he is still a million time better then Lemelo or Liangelo.
Melo and gelo killing it! Jelly and throw downs from both of the ball brothers
BBB🔥🏀 is life
This is just one big ad 😂
Mannn that Lamelo is nice to watch.. future of showtime right there
The Melo Gelo combo. Them boys looked good out there. Gotta stop hatin
i think i just shed some tears for the family as if they were my kids making me proud
Better than Julian Newman
would say lamelo is mechanically better, his lefty game is strong. Julian lacks size and you know what that means lacking in defense because he gets overran by bigger dudes since kids these days in basketball are big as hell. wouldn't say Julian is entirely trash but he needs to fix his cockiness because that can affect how people see him.
Marc Alvarez Tru Tru
Anthony Dominguez I don't even think that's a question now lol 100% agree with u
Duh
あ あ yes
i totally subbed because of melo! this kid is lit! big shoutout to ball is life!!
Here before 1 million!! ⚡️🔛
I saw it on Facebook and it was pretty great seeing lamelo turning the ball over three times in a minute and a hall
people hate on gelo ..but dude can score
Don't know why but I just feel compelled to root for these young men, I know their Dad is over the top but they are humble and I want to see them make it to the league.
Even the refs were wearing bbb. Crazy
Brian Youk not crazy at all tbh
Because thats a friendly game sponsored by BBB :D
The whole tourney is sponsored by Big Baller Bozos..
It's the BBB tournament...
This Man Has A Deal With Ball Is Life To Stream The Games Live. Genius
How the hell they get BBB put on the court so fast lol
money
My boys was out there ballin... hope they keep it up
Love these commentators
Mello Jelly Angelo with the Dunk!
Lithuania got some Ballers 💪
2k better update there Euro League👀
elmer ancheta same thing I was thinking
Bro thats not the euro league team, thats the junior team
i aint ever really been a fan of these two but i gotta say they brought they game today. good shit
Lavar Ball may be on of the smartest entrepreneurs in American sports history
Even if you don’t like the ball family, you can’t deny that seeing them play pro ball together is cool to watch
Bro if they blow a fuckin horn one more time! Shit. I came here for basketball . SIMPLE
boo-hoo, someone's culture is different than yours
Isaac K lol he rather here crappy ass music playing during the game. Seriously I hate how NBA games do that while play is on.
Freddy Martinez nah I rather here the players & the court
AyoLani u lame
If you came here for basketball then you can mute the video and still watch basketball. SIMPLE
This was great to watch props to Lavar for putting this on. Want to see them play some of the top tier teams the announcers were saying that green team was all kids ages 16 - 17.
Melo ballin
This was awesome to see. Really happy for these two young fellas.
Just here to say LaMelo is playing against junior team of Zalgiris, their second team. That mean all players are same age as LaMelo or older one year and they are all younger than LiAngelo. Btw idk is there any players from this team that are currently playing for their national U18 squad so they are nothing special.
Rokas Jokubaitis is quite good. He's 17 years old and dropped more points than Balls combined.
Intensity h
I missed seeing those melo-gelo transition plays. So fast paced & fun.
melo facilitating.. uh oh lol 🔥 let him get comfortable
Glad to see the ball brothers doing good and having fun. Happy for them.
Every one is talking about melo what about gelo he balled his ass off but still gets no recognition...smh
Sad but true... nigga in the post is a beast
Gelo can shoot!!!!! He's also great with his back to the basket
I guess we the only ones who know talent
If Gelo has any hoop dreams, he's gonna need to work on that left hand. A 6"6' guy only using his right in the post isa recipe for disaster.
I am rooting for these guys.
HERE BEFORE THIS GOES VIRAL
RussHive Who cares if your here early or not
chuy gomez Who cares about your opinion
RussHive The full game was live on Facebook
They actually role played really well. Saw melo being very selfless with the ball and gelo with some nice post work. Melo crashing for rebounds. Glad to see the boys doing well
imagine if lonzo was also playing on the team
Fr he should’ve stolen something from China 🇨🇳
Game Player LMFAOOOO
The commentary trying really hard to pull off our basketball lango is the best thing ever
They turnt up today
Crazy how much passing makes you look so much better. What a surprise lol. Looking forward to see how this all plays out.
Fellows Americans, I live in Lithuania, so I will give you some light on what's happening here. Ball brothers are playing for the worst LKL(1st league) team. Yesterday they played against Žalgiris-2, which is a youth team of one of LKL's teams. That team consists of 16-18y olds, for better understanding it's weaker than ncaa team. So basically, pro team with melo and gelo barely won against some youth team. And for even better understanding, their pro team lost few days ago by 57 points to another lithuanian pro team, so if you ask me, they have no chance of playing even in our pro league, forget about NBA for now. On a bright note, Melo is still pretty young and showed some good pitch vision and delivered some good assists, apart from that it was a complete shitshow, cheers.
well said lol
Marijushftw ok so their team lost by 57 points, when they didn't play and won by 10 with them. Sounds like European version of the AAU. Players go pro at 14 in Lithuania, so those kids had 3-4 years of professional experience and lost to two Americans that played their first professional game. The Ball brothers played on the #1 ranked HS team in North America. However, they don't play team basketball in HS, they give the ball to the best player and watch him score. LaMelo is the best player and what I saw on the live game is that he only took 5 shots. 5 twos and 5 threes. Gelo hasn't played a game since March and Melo hasn't played a game since June. So we watched two Americans play in a foreign country where they don't speak the language with teammates that suck and didn't set screens or run plays for them. They're both definitely going to the NBA. We have several current NBA players whom averaged 2-5 points per game their entire first and second years playing professional in Europe as 15 and 16 year olds. These kids did way better than that and they're not even accustomed to that weird style of play.
+paul hogans feel sorry for u bro... They are not pro players. People finish highSchool and most of them go to further education institution. You should do the same because u struggle with simple reasoning. I don't know where they played before but there, they not shining. Opponent team leader dropped 31 pts against them. Pro Teams like BC Zalgiris would destroy them. (not zalgiris-2).
Your facts sir are not reasoned by anything. First of all they are in the country where every teen speaks english, there is no language barrier for them. Secondly, players in Lithuania don't go pro at 14, i have no idea where you took this information from, do us a favor and give us some facts on this. Then again, you say that they will be DEFINITELY in NBA, wowow hold on, your boy gelo can't finish wide open lay up on a fast break in a game where they are playing against some reserve teens, but you know, you are probably one of the best nba coaches so you know better.
I don't care if they scored one point each. I don't care if they played a bunch of 13 year olds. LaMelo Ball got PAID to play a game of basketball and made history as the youngest American ever to be paid to play a game of basketball. Additionally, if you're struggled to understand the word "professional", you could've used an online dictionary to assist you. I will do you a favor and save you the ten seconds. PROFESSIONAL: A person who is PAID for an activity.
Thank you ballislife for streaming the game
I feel like college competition is better than what there going against
they wouldnt make in college league, Lavar knows it, Gelo to slow for guard, to short for post
anthony patterson the dick riders dont listen
The young Ball boy got that game,he can really play frfr big up Lavar another dope decision he is smart as fuck and he know his boys much love...
I don’t think melo so much got better ahaha I think he just didn’t take high school serious
Okay. Damn I was impressed with Lamelo. 16 and in the pros is great for his development. Just wish he could go to college too!! I genuinely believe with the passing ability he showed and natural feel for the game he has the potential to go to the NBA. Baring mind he is only 16!!!!! Reminds me of a flashier version of Lonzo.
This is not pro game, they are from B team
I wonder if there on that team in 2k
Myles Collins damn now u thinking the whole ball family might already be in nba2k thats crazy
This is basically the Dleague of the Lithuanian league so this team ain’t on there
Zalgiris-2 is a team made upf with high school students (between 16 and 17 years) and they went up against a professional team... and they only lost by 10! That is what is amazing from this video
It’s funny how I don’t see any see any haters talking shit about them now 🤔...
Op Asihene they’re everywhere just look
Best commentators ever! "Lamelooooo" "crowd loves crossovers" 😂😂😂👍
I dont care what nobody say LaMelo is the best out of all 3..only if he was the oldest !
Thats because you don't know shit. Lonzo is by far the best of the three. Lamelo might not even make the NBA. He wasn't even the best player on his high school team
ben1ben2ben1 lonzo is ass
Musty Waters Lonzo is kinda ass! But he is MUCH more talented, athletic and smarter then Lamelo. If Lonzo is not doing that good in the NBA, Lemelo has no chance
Proud of my boys. I feel like a father just watching them develop as ballers.
I was here before a million views
You and 999,998 others, bruh
But same 😂😂
I'm 16 and only play in the rec league. lamelo is playing professional and dropping 10 points. That's awesome for a high school kid.
They serious playing in BBB Building. Lavar is about to own half the city
Kenny Roc It's a village.....
Lavar had to pay for the logo
They are fun to watch..i think lavar is a genius for taking his boys overseas..i bet those teams can hang with some college and high schools here in the usa..good competition to get better
I copy and paste this comment from one guy who comes from Lithuania.
"Ok I'm a lithuanian and I watched the game on facebook and I saw alot of weird american comments. Ok so first of all this isnt "Europe 1st division" game, watch euroleague for some good european basketball, or even Eurocup, or playoffs of spanish, greek, turkish, lithuanian, serbian, french leagues. The game was played against Zalgiris junior team, they play in NKL. When you guys heard ball brothers are gonna get play time in BBL league when they signed the contract and said stuff like "lol they're gonna play in the d-league" of lithuania then NKL would be like Z-league. And even lithuanian league is nothing special, prienai and other bottom tier teams have low budgets with players from highschools and similar. Idk about liangelo much, he doesn't seem to be very good... Next I saw alot of you talking about the basketball arena/gym. Of course it isn't big it's in a town with a 10000 population. What do you expect? Google "Zalgiris arena". 30km from prienai and it's one of the biggest in europe with 15000+ capacity. How many american cities with 300k population have 15k basketball arenas? Siemens arena in Vilnius as well. As for ball brothers, I like them alot especially their dad Lavar and i love the shit he says and his personality in general. Lamelo was fun to watch, made some really nice passes. I hope both brothers succeed and go to NBA. Also you guys should look up on youtube "Sharas does america (2004)""
This is the real Zalgiris team:
