“The only way PUMA was going to be the ultimate,” LaVar said. “Is to get all three boys. And you know how you get all three boys? You got Melo huh? You got to get Gelo. Now you got Melo and Gelo. Zo will come.”

This is not a major shocker for fans of the Ball family. In late 2019, Big Baller Brand made a major push to feature LiAngelo as Lonzo and LaMelo began to shy away from the brand.

“But if that one in the middle say no, then cut it off in the middle,” LaVar went on. “You can’t get Lonzo. Because Gelo was the strongest… they [PUMA] offered him something, he said, ‘Nah, I’m good. I rocks with triple B’s.’ That’s how that move worked.”

Imagine how not just the basketball world, but the sports world would react if all three Ball brothers joined PUMA. The real question, is will all three ever rejoin Big Baller Brand and try again for a takeover?

The world will have to wait.
