Yanking LaMelo Ball outta high school is "the smartest move in the world," so says John Salley who praises LaVar as a visionary who knows how to make great athletes.
"Smartest people in the world are home schooled," Salley tells TMZ Sports.
"If not, you get shot in school, you gotta get picked on, you gotta worry about clothes, you're not focused."
Of course, LaVar pulled 16-year-old LaMelo out of Chino Hills High School to privately educate and train him. LaVar believes he will better prepare Melo for the NBA this way.
