Accompanied by her outspoken husband and Big Baller Brand creator LaVar Ball, the mother of three was spotted at the American Sports Center in Anaheim, California where she watched their youngest son, LaMelo, play in a Big Ballers AAU game.


quote:

LaVar walked alongside his wife, who was supported with a quad cane and proudly wore the family’s BBB shirt in blue and gold, the colors of her NBA son’s alma mater, UCLA. That same night, Lonzo, a standout rookie on the Los Angeles Lakers, was in Las Vegas where he had his second triple-double of the NBA Summer League.

Strokes are horrible. Glad she is walking; most of her right side of her upper extremities seems shot from that video

Alma mater just means a school that you've attended.

You don't have to graduate to be an alumnus or consider it your alma mater.

Calling a school he attended for a year his "alma mater" is a bit of a stretch.

Not if you know the definition of the word.

I don't know why people are obsessed with "graduating" from a school to be called an alum?

There was a thread about this awhile ago - and very few understood that you just had to have attended a school...not received a degree.

And yet, there were some who kept arguing "to me alma-mater means degree."

Where did this come from?

When you just gotta search for that one "gotcha" moment so you can point it out!!!!




And it's not even correct.
