Says his kid should not have been suspended since no charges were formally filed!!
LaVar Ball pulls LiAngelo Ball from UCLA
nov 4 2017 LaVar Ball pulled his son LiAngelo Ball from UCLA on Monday, according to TMZ.
LiAngelo Ball was in the middle of an indefinite suspension for being arrested in China for shoplifting, along with two other teammates. The arrest, which happened Nov. 7, created an international incident, in which President Trump lobbied for the players’ release.
TMZ noted Ball has officially yet to withdraw, but LaVar told the publication that the suspension was “unfair” because no charges were formally filed.
LiAngelo Ball was a freshman for UCLA’s men’s basketball team. He hadn’t played a game yet for the Bruins. As part of his suspension, he hadn’t been allowed to practice, suit up or travel with the team, according to ESPN.
“He’s not transferring to another school,” LaVar Ball told ESPN on Monday. “The plan is now to get Gelo ready for the NBA Draft.”
