LiAngelo Ball, brother of the Lakers’ Lonzo Ball and son of the inimitable LaVar Ball, is the most widely known of the three UCLA basketball players arrested last week on charges of shoplifting from a Louis Vuitton store in Hangzhou, China. Ball and his teammates have finally been released by authorities — and, whether ESPN likes it or not, they’ve got President Trump to thank for it.
The players — Ball, Cody Riley and Jalen Hill — were arrested last Tuesday for allegedly attempting to steal sunglasses from a Louis Vuitton store, authorities initially threatening the three young men with the possibility of ten years in prison.
