"Raggedy-ass refs tried to cheat us out of a game."

LaVar Ball's "Big Ballers" AAU squad, which includes his youngest son LaMelo, forfeited their playoff game at the Double Pump Best of Summer Tournament in Anaheim, California after head coach LaVar was hit with a technical.

It's worth noting, LaVar's team was up 69-60 when he decided to pull his players off the court.

Footage from the game shows LaVar barking at the officials over foul calls and as soon as he gets hit with a T he tells his players to get their things and leads them off the floor.

According to USA Today, some UCLA coaches were in the building to watch LaMelo, who has already committed to play his college ball there.

In a video posted after the Big Ballers had left the court, LaMelo can be heard describing the events as, "just the funniest shit I ever saw."
