LaVar Ball inaccurately calls out Kyrie Irving for questioning his parenting skills

It's usually a good rule of thumb not to call out someone else's parenting skills, but anyone that has a chance to comment on LaVar Ball's parenting is taking their opportunity to give their opinion if anyone will listen.

Cavaliers' guard Kyrie Irving did just that last week saying this on Fox Sports, "LaVar, you’re not going to be in every hotel room that Lonzo is going to be in, you’re not going to be everywhere and part of his life as he continues to grow up. You got to let go. He’s 19-years-old. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want it to bypass him being a father, but he’s got to let Lonzo be Lonzo for the long haul.”

LaVar was called out quite a few times on Fox Sports and reacted in varying ways. He was having none of it. And again, he had none of it with Kyrie.

"How you young guys going to say anything if you ain't got no kids?" he said on Undisputed.

It's a fair question. However, the question would have been more fair had, you know, Kyrie Irving wasn't a father, which he actually is.

 

Appreciate my pops sending me this on this beautiful Sunday. Such a proud dad!! My little shorty is taking steps now ??

In fairness maybe LaVar's double negative was intentional on this one because technically he did ask Kyrie how are you young guys going to say anything if you have kids? It's a lesson in grammar people.

Or it's just LaVar Ball sticking his foot in his mouth again. It could be either one, but odds are greater it's the latter.
