LaVar Ball's decision to take his son LaMelo out of Chino Hills High School and homeschool him for the next two years has been criticized far and near. Count former Lakers star and NBA Sixth Man of the Year Lamar Odom among those who think the boisterous basketball dad is making a mistake.
"That seems drastic," Odom said when asked about the LaMelo situation during an interview with Complex News' "Every Day Struggle" program.. "You know what I'm saying? Because, you just gonna take him out of school because he doesn't like the coach? What about if he doesn't like the coach in his next basketball move, or his move (to) college, or his move to the NBA, if he makes it.
