The clash between Trump and Ball started with the shoplifting incident involving three UCLA basketball players, one of which is LaVar’s son, LiAngelo Ball. Trump would start it with the following tweet:
Ball would then respond to interviews with ESPN and CNN stating that he doesn’t know what the President did to get the three players out of China and would refuse to thank Trump. In the days since, Trump would continue to talk about the situation on social media, including the latest:
The heart of the matter…
When talking about the similarities between Trump and Ball, Cuban would tell TMZ Sports the following (transcript from The Score):
Cuban would also jokingly suggest that LaVar send Trump some of his Big Baller Brand shoes to mend the fences. He also jokingly suggested that all of this feud is about Trump getting some free shoes.
What’s next?
It’s anyone’s guess for what’s next for either Trump or LaVar. Meanwhile, for Dallas, they are on the tough rebuilding route, each night avoiding to stay the worst team in the league.
