LaMelo Ball Out for Hornets with Calf Injury
LaMelo Ball of the Charlotte Hornets is out due to a calf injury. He will not take the court as he manages this issue. This news comes after previous reports of his left calf strain, which kept him off the court since early December.
What It Means
This injury is a setback for LaMelo Ball and the Hornets. Ball has been an important player, averaging 30.4 points per game this season. His absence leaves a gap in scoring and playmaking.
The team will need others to step up in his place. Vasilije Micic and DaQuan Jeffries are next on the depth chart at point guard. They will have more minutes and responsibilities while Ball recovers from his injury.
