Lakers guard Lonzo Ball has cut ties with the co-founder of Big Baller Brand after concerns of his criminal past and the whereabouts of around $1.5 million from Ball's personal and business accounts, reports ESPN's Ramona Shelburne and Paula Lavigne.
Ball told ESPN that Alan Foster, who is a longtime family friend, "used his access to my business and personal finances to enrich himself. As a result, I have decided to sever all ties with Alan, effective immediately."
According to ESPN, Foster owns 16.3% of Big Baller Brand and he's served as the business manager of all of the Ball family companies.
