Three UCLA basketball players arrested on Tuesday in China for shoplifting were released on bail, reports ESPN’s Arash Markazi. The players — freshmen LiAngelo Ball, Cody Riley, and Jalen Hill -- were arrested Tuesday on suspicion of shoplifting from a Louis Vuitton store near their hotel in Hangzhou.

Markazi reports that the three players remain in Hangzhou while legal proceedings continue. The rest of the basketball team, including coach Steve Alford, has traveled to Shanghai, where UCLA is scheduled to play Georgia Tech on Friday.

The privileged athletes we see here every day when we turn on sports have met reality in China.

Daddy apparently did not raise them very well to steal.
No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

The father of the Ball brothers is a loudmouth, egotistical, racist jerk.  He blasted UCLA's white players (one of whom T.J. Leaf was a no 1 draft pick in last years NBA draft) for losing in the NCAA tourney last year.  He also thinks he could have beaten Michael Jordan one on one when they were in their primes.
Whatever values the Ball brothers have learned in life, they probably didn't get anything positive from their idiot pappy.

The idiocy of someone like that just won't work in China.  Too bad Daddy did not go along for the ride and shoplift too.
