LaVar Ball joined CNN Saturday night for what would be an extremely wild ride in a 20-plus minute interview. The main point of the interview was discussing president Donald Trump and the role he played in Ball's son LiAngelo's return from China after being arrested for shoplifting.

Ball was his usual character during the live interview, offering many entertaining moments throughout. One of the main points was that he did not intend to take a shot at Trump when he declined to thank him for LiAngelo's return. Then at the end of the interview, Ball wished Trump and everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

Here's the full interview:

After LiAngelo Ball along with two other UCLA teammates were arrested for shoplifting in China, Trump intervened making a call to the president of China to try and get the players released from jail and on their way back to the United States.

Trump then tweeted out curious if those players would thank him for what he did, which they all did when giving statements after the incident.

Later, LaVar claimed that Trump was not the reason his son and his teammates were released prompting Trump to tweet again that LaVar was very ungrateful and “I should have left them in jail.”

This was all enough to get LaVar an interview on CNN.
