Embiid: I'd rock Big Baller Brand for 'a billion dollars'
In a shocking turn of events, Joel Embiid could actually show LaVar Ball some support.
The Philadelphia 76ers big man was asked what it would take for him to wear Lonzo Ball's signature kicks, and after initially dismissing the notion, Embiid told TMZ:
"A billion dollars."
As openly critical of LaVar as he's been (and vice versa), Embiid actually sounded like the Ball patriarch with that tongue-in-cheek request.

LaVar reportedly made Lonzo turn down multi-million dollar sneaker deals because he was holding out for a $1-billion endorsement. The family eventually started its own line called Big Baller Brand, and when Lonzo was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers, his father upped his asking price to $3 billion.
That's rich.
