It was really only a matter of time, wasn’t it?

Days after three UCLA basketball players returned home to the United States after being detained in China over shoplifting charges, the father of one of the players sounded off to ESPN and completely downplayed President Donald Trump’s role in securing the players’ release.

LaVar Ball — a guy who courts controversy as if it is his very lifeblood — was asked by ESPN about Trump’s involvement in bringing his son LiAngelo Ball and two other UCLA freshmen home. And he answered in the most LaVar way possible.

“Who?” Ball exclaimed. “What was he over there for? Don’t tell me nothing. Everybody wants to make it seem like he helped me out.”
