Mid round pick to take on 20 mill for one year seems... extremely doable

 

[Buzzer noise]

 

Oh man please let [buzzer noise] be his jersey nickname

 

wait so his dad said that? lol

it says "jr." not "lll"

 

Idk who said it lmao. I’ve seen quite a few people say his dad has “Lavar potential”

 

Yeah I think it’s his dad and Jones misunderstood

 

lol it was his dad

 

He made a new tweet attempting to be clearer with what he meant

 

Matt trying to rap shame Bagley is rich.

 

Oh okay, well either way he should have to be [buzzer noise] from now on

 

lol what? Once you’re a pro you don’t get family and friends or any pr help now, lol fuck this nonsense

 

I mean, is it possible Puma offered more money? If they're being as aggressive as it seems like, then I could see that.

 

Yeah it’s a bad take by Bomani who usually has really good ones!!

 

He was whisper quiet while he was at Duke. LaVar was obnoxious at UCLA. I wouldn’t be that worried.

 

Bagley apparently signed the biggest rookie shoe deal since Durant and KD got $60 million over 7 years. So I’m sure he’s happy either way

 

Ayton’s reason for going to Puma is the fucking best / more transparency please

 

Ah, you don't know the supergroup between the white underground producer from the 90s and the other guy who is like friends with Big Boi or something? What are you frigid

 

Oh, you mean Atmosphere or that hair cut "Thrift Shop" guy?

This tweet didn't set right with me.

 

CBS Sports: You ever listen to Run the Jewels?
Marvin Bagley III: Nah.
CBS Sports: Man. None of you kids know Run the Jewels?
Marvin Bagley III: Never heard of that.
CBS Sports: They're fantastic, almost on the level of Kendrick. OK, you're partnering up with Mountain Dew. What led you to this endorsement opportunity?

Like, shut up CBS Sports.

 

That's embarrassing

 

You know what, this bugs me even more the more I think about it. I'm in a mood today. I'm all for parents sticking up for their kids. If they cross the line and do the stuff Lavar does, by all means, call them out. But this little buzzer sound thing, especially in the video, is not remotely on that level. And I'm cool with a dad "protecting" his 19 year old son by saying he doesn't wanna talk about money/business like that and making a "buzzer noise" to do it. Fuck it.
