Lamar Odom Explains Why LaVar Ball is Tolerated by the Los Angeles Lakers

Odom x Everyday Struggle

Earlier this week, LaVar Ball made headlines, when he pulled LaMelo out of high-school. He felt that having son home schooled away from being a media target, would help him focus on studies and sports for collegiate play in two years. Non-surprisingly, the rest of the sports world didn’t see it that way and have criticized these actions. One person, who sees him almost every week in Los Angeles, is Lamar Odom, who spent the bulk of his summer helping the young players train.

Today, L.O. was guest on Complex’s Everyday Struggle to discuss his upcoming tell-all book; as well as the positives and negatives that come with being around the fame of the Kardashian family. However, regarding LaVar’s input on the Lakers behind-the-scenes, he felt that since Lonzo is attracting the team money, Mr. Ball’s actions will be tolerated for the time being.

Watch more from the conversation below, where he also explains why he feels LaVar is a bit of a control freak – if he can’t have things done his way; plus recent Kanye West stories.
