LaMelo Ball
In early July 2017, "Deadline Hollywood" reported the development of a Facebook reality show that would feature the Ball family. It would be a part of a larger project for Facebook to enter the video business. Weeks later, the show was announced was "Ball in the Family". It began airing exclusively on the social media website on August 31, with the following episodes airing every Sunday from September 10. A second season of the show began in November 2017 and continued to be filmed into 2018 despite LaMelo's move to Lithuania. It was produced by Bunim/Murray Productions, which also helped create the reality TV series "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" on E! and Real World on MTV. LaVar has been considered the main focus of the show, with LaMelo and his brothers taking supporting roles.
