If standard practices are applied, the three UCLA basketball players including LiAngelo Ball arrested Tuesday in mainland China under suspicion of shoplifting face between three and 10 years in prison if convicted, according to Chinese lawyers who briefed Yahoo Sports on the applicable laws. The sentencing guidelines could shift depending on the amount that the Chinese could prove was allegedly stolen. Authorities believe the players shoplifted from a Louis Vuitton store near the UCLA team hotel outside of Shanghai. The Bruins are in China to play Georgia Tech on Saturday in the season opener. The players were arrested Tuesday after local law enforcement came to the team hotel and questioned both UCLA and Georgia Tech players before taking the three away. ESPN first reported the arrests.

These “Soy Sauce Chickens” (Pejorative term to describe blacks in Chinese) are about to learn a fairly hard lesson in obeying the rules.
You can take the kid out of the hood and even send him to China, but you can’t take....
The Chinese don’t play the black privilege game...
Do they get charged with the value of the genuine article or for the cost of materials for the fake, pirated stuff?
Lucky its not Saudi Arabia. Maybe cut some fingers off there.
These Sportsball players were clearly profiled and set up. I think UCLA, and all participants in college athletics, should take a knee until China comes to it’s senses.
Perhaps the teams can take a knee in protest during the playing of the Chinese national anthem. That should do the trick.
Amish kids?
He’s got some ‘splainin to do.
...the hoodie off the kid....?

They were probably wondering why the store owner wasnt asking for their autographs. Idiots in China. 6 month sentence would keep them out of March madness. Sounds fair to teach a lifes lesson.
UCLA wont suspend them, maybe for a practice or a meaningless non conf. game.
Special kind of entitled morons to pull this crap in a foreign country. It would be bad enough here, but do they think their “black athlete privilege” is going to save them in China??? I doubt it....
1) What in the wide, wide world of collegiate sports are two American colleges doing playing basketball in China? Against each other?
2) Was no one at either of those institutes of higher learning smart enough to explain to those over grown, petted and pampered “athletes” what could happen if they screwed up in a communist country?
Paging Otto Warmbier.
3) Did the hood rats not realise the Race Card IS NOT ACCEPTED in China?
Hopefully these idiots spend their prime earning years in a Chinese prison and return home more or less safely.
Perhaps Trump will make a deal.
