Lonzo Ball Doubtful for Bulls’ Game Against Hawks on December 26th Due to Illness
Lonzo Ball is dealing with an illness and is doubtful to play for the Chicago Bulls. The illness started on December 23, and he missed that game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This puts his status in doubt for the upcoming game against the Atlanta Hawks on December 26.
What It Means
This news means Lonzo Ball may not be available for the Bulls in their next match. So far this season, Ball has averaged 5.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game. His shooting percentages are low at 31.2% from the field and 28.3% from three-point range.
If Ball cannot play, Ayo Dosunmu might see more time on the court as he is currently ahead of Ball in the depth chart. Dosunmu averages more minutes and points per game than Ball does this season. The team will need other players to step up if Ball remains out due to his illness.
