Ball cut ties with Foster and Big Baller Brand in late March after his financial advisor reportedly informed the family about irregularities, but Ball wasn't aware that $1.5 million went missing until then.
"(Foster has) used his access to my business and personal finances to enrich himself," Ball told ESPN. "As a result, I have decided to sever all ties with Alan, effective immediately."
The 21-year-old reportedly owns 51 percent of Big Baller Brand, according to documents obtained by ESPN.
Ball has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2018-19 season with an ankle injury.
He hasn't appeared in a game for Los Angeles since Jan. 19 and was averaging 9.9 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.4 assists before the injury.
