They're going to live like kings over there.
Not where they belong, but they're not going to be unhappy.
Both will probably put in strong performances given the level of play. The question is, will their games develop to the point they need when they return for the NBA draft?
Stay tuned. We'll hear from LaVar; even if we don't want to.

Good luck to two American teenage boys living alone for the first time in a foreign country almost half way around the world.
You know that they brought all of their video games and music so we know that they will certainly be busting their butts getting
their high school diplomas. What was the old saying? "Yeah, right."
I can understand the publicity that a club team in Europe gains by signing these two kids, but really cannot believe that a parent(s) think that this
gig is going to work for their children. Placing basketball above education is more than just a risky move.
Big Ballers or not, these two kids are still children and should be looked after as such. If you have raised kids, you know that
raising them never really ends when you are around them all the time and sending them to the other side of the world to get
babysat by some club team is not in the best interest of your children. Cripes, the oldest and most mature (?) of them stole a pair
of stupid sunglasses while in China.
Lavar Ball not only has a big mouth but he is also way dumber than I thought.
