His brash persona in the media has made him difficult to deal with. Not to mention his outlandish comments about being able to beat Michael Jordan in a game of one-on-one in his prime.<\/p>\n<p>Well, <strong>Saucony Originals<\/strong> is putting all the nonsense to the side and offering LaVar&#8217;s son Lonzo a shoe deal. But there&#8217;s a catch: LaVar has to put his ball skills to the test. In a playful, troll worthy tweet, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.saucony.com\/en\/originals-mens-shop-all\/?sma=sm.0000wxnsixj64eyqqq52413ynfdze\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saucony<\/a> promised to give Lonzo a basketball shoe if LaVar could beat their VP of Finance in a game of one-on-one.<\/p>\n<p>For what it&#8217;s worth, the shoe in question doesn&#8217;t look half bad.
