Watch: LaVar tells CNN LiAngelo treated more harshly in U.S. than China
LaVar Ball on pulling his son off the UCLA basketball team: “That’s one of the main reasons he went to UCLA is to play basketball. That’s his passion. And for them to prolong this and go on and on, it’s ridiculous to me.” pic.twitter.com/5p9otRVzIy

CNN and LaVar Ball reunited Tuesday to discuss his decision to remove his son LiAngelo from UCLA.
Ball told Chris Cuomo he believes the punishment his son is facing is unfair, and is "harsher treatment" than LiAngelo and his teammates received in China.
It was the second time Ball appeared on CNN after slamming President Donald Trump in another interview with Cuomo in November.
LiAngelo has a few options if his exit from the school is finalized, none of which appear better than learning from UCLA head coach Steve Alford.
