Kyle Kuzma keeps quiet on basketball scandal, but Lonzo Ball says it's time to pay college players

By
Often vocal about his belief that college basketball players should be paid, Kyle Kuzma took a step back on Friday and let Lakers teammate Lonzo Ball make the point for him.

"I don't think it is the right time to really say too much about that with all (the stuff) going on," Kuzma said.

Ball, however, didn't hold back.

"Everybody knows everybody's getting paid," Ball said Friday morning. "That's just how it is. Everybody's getting paid anyway, you might as well make it legal."

Kuzma was among the players identified as having been paid by an agent while in college in documents first obtained by Yahoo Sports. The documents are part of an FBI investigation into bribery and corruption in college basketball that has already led to the arrests of four assistant coaches, including Tony Bland, formerly of USC.

Expense reports obtained by the FBI detailed payments made to college basketball players and NBA prospects by the high-powered agency ASM Sports.

"I'm aware of it, of course," Kuzma said of the report. "I am sure everybody is in the country. It is a legal matter. Me and my team and everybody else is gathering information right now, and my main focus is focusing on basketball."

Key players recall 1968 Polish student revolt, ensuing anti-Semitism

By
In March 1968, a student revolt crushed by Poland's baton-wielding police was used as a pretext for an anti-Semitic purge by the communist regime. It began when the communists banned the 19th-century play "Forefathers' Eve" by poet Adam Mickiewicz claiming it had anti-Russian elements. Two students who contested the ban were expelled from the University of Warsaw, prompting their peers to stage a demonstration on March 8. Backed by other civil groups, particularly workers unhappy with daily life under communism, the pro-democracy protests spread to other cities. The regime used the student revolt as an excuse to unleash an anti-Semitic campaign that was rooted in a settling of scores inside the Communist Party, which was split into two camps.
