The Big Baller Brand has officially arrived in Lithuania, and fans are already showing their excitement before Ball brothers LiAngelo and LaMelo take the court for the professional Lithuanian club Vytautas Prienai.

The excitement is so high that the team decided to make some profit off of it.

Last week, team officials announced that they would sell about 500 LiAngelo and LaMelo game jerseys sometime in January. That sometime ended up being the brothers’ first full day in the country.

The jerseys (with the numbers 1 and 3) were sold on Thursday on Amazon for $99 each, but if you’re looking to add them to your collection, you’re out of luck. They sold out. Note that the brothers only signed one-year contracts with the team.

LiAngelo and LaMelo are expected to make their debut on Tuesday when Vytautas Prienai hosts Tsmoki-Minsk in a Baltic League game. Tickets for the 1,200-seat arena have already sold out.
