The Bulls made official what has been expected for weeks and as a mere formality after each neutral, non-update from the team: Lonzo Ball won’t play basketball this season.
“I’m not too worried about ,” Ball said on Jan. 16. “I just think it’s time consuming. This is my third surgery. I had two last year. It’s about building that strength back up and the confidence in myself. I’m only 25. So I don’t have any concern.”
Ball didn’t play the next night in Boston, heading for surgery later that month to repair a meniscus tear. The Bulls said he would return to play in six to eight weeks.Ball then soberly addressed his lingering issues in September on the eve of a debridement procedure aimed at cleaning out debris from the troublesome knee. It marked Ball’s second surgery in 2022 and third of his career.
Let’s pause here for perspective. Injuries stink. It may sound pedestrian or cliché, but for a franchise and fan base still scarred by the Derrick Rose saga, it’s true.
