UCLA basketball turning into family affair

The Ball keeps rolling for UCLA on the basketball recruiting front.

The Bruins are expected in the coming days to land a second consecutive recruiting class ranked in the top five nationally that will include Chino Hills High shooting guard LiAngelo Ball, the younger brother of highly touted freshman Lonzo Ball.

Those hoping for a Ball brothers reunion in Westwood will probably be disappointed.

“The next time the Ball boys are going to link up, I’m going to tell you when — the USA team four years from now,” LaVar Ball, the siblings’ father, told The Times, referring to the national team that will compete in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
