Father of the year LaVar Ball informed BC Vytautas, the Lithuanian basketball club, that both LiAngelo and LaMelo Ball would be leaving the team, according to Lithuanian journalist Donatas Urbonas.
Interestingly enough, the two players will be departing the team with two regular season games left.
Ball reality show comes to an end. BC Vytautas confirmed that Ball brothers are set to leave Lithuania next week, with two LKL regular season games left to play. BC Vytautas still will be fighting to avoid relegation.

"We're not going to waste our time no more", LaVar told. LiAngelo injured his ankle, LaMelo didn't get any playing time, so LaVar decided to take all his sons back to LA. Lonzo is visiting his family in Prienai right now. They're set to leave Sunday-Monday.

Looks like Melo’s days in Lithuania are over, as his Pops has said he won’t be returning next season.
LaVar Ball confirmed LaMelo is not going back to Prienai next season: “You really ask me this? Coach ruined everything and he’ll have to pay the price that Melo is not coming back.”

LaVar Ball told he was happy with the Lithuania, its people and BC Vytautas organization: “I just didn’t get along with the coach”

Shocking LaVar didn’t get along with the coach, and bailed early. This guy is the ultimate parent nightmare for any coach. He tried to throw Luke Walton under the bus, but once he realized that wasn’t going to work, he shut his big mouth up.
Say whatever you want about him, I personally think he has no clue what the hell he’s doing. Liangelo should have stayed at UCLA, and LaMelo should still be in high school. Now what LaVar?
He literally gets along with no coach. First it was his kids high school coach then the Lakers coach…the problem is Lavar only.
