Lonzo Ball has not appeared on NBA floors since January 14, 2022, more than a year ago. We are not even sure that we will ever see the point guard, seriously injured in his knee, in action one day. A difficult test for him, as well as for the Chicago Bulls, who are also suffering from the situation.
Guest on the “From The Point” podcast of Trae Young, the former Lakers player confided in his difficulties. He explains that he feels bad for the franchise, which has built a great workforce of which he was an essential member.
“It will be a big “what if””explains Lonzo Ball. “I feel bad, especially for the leaders. I feel like they made a perfect team around me and I felt involved. I have never been so involved in an organization. I finally had the perfect team, which matched my game and played my way. This injury, which I still suffer from right now, hurt me because I had an opportunity and I never could see what it would be like. »

If a return of the leader is not to be excluded, the Bulls are preparing to play without him all season. They have indeed obtained a “Disabled Player Exception” of $ 10.2 million for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. The NBA grants this envelope to teams that have probably lost a player for the entire season.
Lonzo Ball was averaging 13 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 2021-22, in 35 games. While he was on a nice progression curve and his team held first place in the East, his injury left a void in Chicago.
