Another day, another sound bite from LaVar Ball.

After the Ball's family home was burglarized Tuesday night, Ball was interviewed by ESPN on Wednesday, where he was asked about his ongoing feud with TNT analyst Charles Barkley, which had the Hall of Famer challenging Ball to a game of one-on-one.

"That's what I'm talking about. Charles has got to go Google me for what? He wants some press," Ball said. "I'm not going to go Google Charles. Meanwhile he wants to play one-on-one and all this and saying I averaged two points. Who cares? I know he don't want to play no one-on-one 'cause he too big, he's gotta stay behind TNT and eat them donuts."

When asked again about the one-on-one challenge, Ball said it was all noise.

"He don't want to do that. He's just talking. He just want more press," Ball said.
