LaMelo Ball Out At Least Two Weeks
16 seconds agoCharlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (calf) will be re-evaluated in two weeks because of a left calf strain. The 23-year-old has had an MVP-caliber season, averaging a career-high 31.3 points with 6.9 assists and 5.4 rebounds. Unfortunately, Ball will miss more time after appearing in only 58 games in the previous two seasons. With Tre Mann (back) dealing with disc irritation, Vasilije Micic, who averaged 11.8 points and 6.3 assists in 21 starts last season, is worth considering for streaming purposes. Of course, Brandon Miller should pick up a lot of the surplus scoring opportunities caused by Ball's absence, at least until Miles Bridges (knee) is back on the floor.
