LaVar Ball offers to send Trump basketball shoes 'so he can calm down a little bit'

BY BRETT SAMUELS - 11/26/17 11:01 AM EST

LaVar Ball on Saturday quipped that he’s going to send President Trump a pair of his son's signature brand of basketball shoes so Trump can “calm down a little bit,” amid an ongoing feud between the two men.

“Check this out, I’m going to send Trump some ZO2s. We just got them out, man, we putting them on flight today, today is the 24th, and I said we’re shipping out ZO2s. You know what, I got to ship some to Trump so he can calm down a little bit,” Ball said in a video posted by TMZ Sports.

“You put them on, you’re going to ease up a little bit,” he said.

Ball's son LiAngelo Ball was one of three UCLA basketball players arrested earlier this month on shoplifting charges while on a team trip to China.

I don't like seeing Geordi La Forge getting hate mail.

Obviously, LeVar Ball is not up to this task.

One or both of the boys will probably end up with them, and use them on their endangered species hunts.
