NBA (National Basketball Association)

  • For real? LaVar Ball is the father of UCLA basketball player Lonzo Ball, who is entering in this year’s NBA draft. Papa Ball is so demanding that he’s scared away any sponsor who might want to work with his son.

Drawing serious criticism, Ball released his son’s own signature shoe that you can buy for a cool $495. (Mind you he’s never played in an NBA game). Look out Kris Jenner, there’s a new sheriff in town.

  • The Fertitta Brothers, who recently sold UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) for a hefty profit, are putting their money where their mouths are. They have started their own $500 million fund to invest in fast-growing companies in the media, entertainment and technology sectors.

  • The day before the Derby is the Kentucky Oaks, which is a race for the fillies (female horses). The race started in 1875 and is the fourth highest attended horse race in the U.S. – following the Triple Crown of racing. All attendees are encouraged to wear pink because the day raises money for critical women’s health issues.  Here's more on the triple crown and the Kentucky Oaks.
