âGetting these players is going to be easy â  Ball  said. âThis is giving guys a chance to get a jump start on their career  to be seen by pro scouts  and weâre going to pay them because someone has to pay these kids.â
 Ball  also said the league will use NBA regulations but that all players will wear his Big Baller brand shoes and gear because his company is funding the league.
âWeâll give it to them all. Theyâll be wearing our uniform  our shoes  our T-shirts and our hoodies â  Ball  insisted.
 Ball  said  he  wants to assemble ten teams in cities such as Los Angeles  Dallas  Brooklyn  and Atlanta.
 Ball  recently made news with a feud with President Donald Trump over the assistance the president lent his son  LiAngelo  who was arrested for shoplifting by Chinese authorities when his college team was in that country in November.
