LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball were ranked high to most college scouts, but since the NCAA
has interfered with their father’s vision they all of a sudden moved to Lithuania and
played professionally there. I discovered that UCLA suspended LiAngelo Ball for a long
duration of time after his incident in China. This will help surely help us with our project
because if more high school standouts see how the NCAA treats their players, they might
have to play professionally somewhere else to get money. Both LaMelo and LiAngelo
Ball are proof that you don’t need to be with the NCAA to make money doing the sport
you love.

that make everyone tune in and watch. If they are the champions, they would certainly
need a prize for their efforts on winning the entire tournament. The NCAA made a close

most talked about high school players would be Zion Williamson of Spartanburg Day
High School. I discovered that Zion Williamson was the #1 Player out of South Carolina

the hype for upcoming players draws more attention to the NCAA. More attention means
more revenue for the organization and none for the players.
