Where can I buy BBB apparel?
Look no further than https://bigballerbrand.com/
Lonzo's official ZO2 Collection can be found at: https://zo2collection.com/
Gelo's G3 Collection forthcoming next year most likely
What else is BBB involved?
Ball In The Family is the Ball family's Facebook reality television show. And gives viewers a more in depth look at the Ball family dynamics as well as some insight into how the business works. Still even though the show tries to rely on more genuine moments and experiences in contrast to something such as Keeping up with the Kardasians, it still is a reality television show and obviously portrays the family in a rose tinted lens.
New episodes every Sunday.
Can the two other brothers make the NBA?
LiAngelo Ball has a good chance of making the G-League if he continues his production with Vytautas and declares for the draft and goes undrafted. Which is what will likely happen. The chances of him seeing an NBA court is close to zero.
LaMelo Ball has the most potential out of all the other brothers but is extremely undisciplined and prefers to go for his erratic offense and rarely plays any defense, although he has all the tools to become an elite defender. As a prospect LaMelo is a 5 star recruit similar to Lonzo but ranked lower in his class than Lonzo was (Lonzo was ranked #4 in his high school recruiting class). Lastly, LaMelo is still 16 and is two years away from being able to declare for the NBA so he has a few years to develop and his future is in his own hands now.
How are you getting all this info and news, and is BBB and the Ball family even that interesting to follow?
USA Today has its own dedicated section to Lonzo and the rest of the Ball family called https://lonzowire.usatoday.com/. Almost all things related to the Ball family can be found here, and if not here check out the Ball brother's social media pages

And as for are they interesting to follow? Well they do have a large following and their approach/what they're doing with their family brand is something that has really never been done before. Whether it ends in failure or success a lot of eyes are on the Ball family and it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.
As for me personally? Well Chino Hills is literally 15 minutes away from where I grew up so seeing a player from Chino Hills end up on the Lakers is one of the reasons I became enamored by Lonzo. That in addition to his play style and approach to the game is enough to make me stay a little updated on the happenings of the family.
What about the Lakers?
Lonzo is the Lakers starting Point Guard. A lot of the BBB media attention and hubbub is in part to how Lonzo ended up playing on the Lakers after LaVar "spoke it into existence." Although the Lakers and BBB are pretty far removed, Facebook isn't allowed to shoot at any of the games without paying a hefty fee, there is still some important crossover. As such a lot of what happens with the Lakers may sometimes pertain to BBB and vice-versa.
Who is Zo?
Zo is Lonzo's nickname as well has his rapper alias.
Check out his debut mixtape Born 2 Ball, available on all major streaming sites as well as for purchase on iTunes.

And that's all I got for now, will update this thread with more info and news as it comes.
What is BBB? Who are the Ball brothers?
Big Baller Brand (BBB) is an American company that designs, manufactures, and sells clothing and shoes. Launched in 2016 by media personality LaVar Ball, it has most notably produced signature shoes for the Ball brothers: Lonzo Ball of the Los Angeles Lakers, and LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball of the Lithuanian team Vytautas Prienai–Birštonas. Big Baller Brand has additionally been involved in the creation of the Junior Basketball Association (JBA), which it will fully fund, and the Big Baller Brand Challenge Games, a series of Lithuanian exhibition games hosted by Vytautas that feature LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball. More recently, the company has partnered with Birštonas Mineral Water to import bottled water to the United States. In addition, Big Baller Brand has drawn criticism for poor customer service and excessively priced products.
