The mind behind Big Baller Brand does everything big, including drawing big crowds.
With the Los Angeles Lakers opening their preseason against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Honda Center on Saturday night, a large number of fans lined up for a chance to meet the always-offbeat LaVar Ball, father of Lakers rookie and No. 2 overall pick Lonzo Ball.
In 33 years of being involved with the NBA...I have never seen a line to shake the hand of the father an NBA player. #BigBallerBrand pic.twitter.com/pSUmyklrhF

Say what you will about LaVar and some of the remarks he's made, but you can't deny he's a man of the people, going the extra mile for his supporters.
