According to The Score, Olivia took issue with Ben failing to reach out to her after opening up about her struggles with bipolar disorder, even after she called him first to no avail. On the heels of the One and Done documentary where he blasted the NCAA, the former LSU product continues finding himself in headlines even before stepping foot onto an NBA court.
