LaVar Ball and family got a warm welcome in Lithuania

LaVar Ball and his sons LaMelo and LiAngelo touched down at Vilnius Airport in Lithuania Wednesday and were greeted by a very large, and very excited crowd.

The Prienai-Birstonas Vytautas club, which plays in the Lithuanian league, signed the Ball brothers back in December.

You'll likely remember that LiAngelo left UCLA , shortly after he was suspended following his shoplifting arrest during the team's trip to China. Lavar Ball then puled LaMelo, 16, out of Chino Hills High to take both his sons' talents overseas, making both ineligible for college basketball.
