LaMelo Ball Remains On Schedule After Surgery
1 year agoAccording to Hornets president of basketball operations/general manager Mitch Kupchak, guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) is right on schedule regarding his rehab after undergoing surgery in March to repair a fracture. "The bone was probably 100% six weeks ago," Kupchak said. "In terms of MRIs and X-rays, it's 100% healed." The 2020 No. 3 overall pick was also praised because of the work he's put in at the team facility this offseason, something he didn't do as frequently in the past. That said, Ball, who has averaged 19.4 points, 7.3 assists, 6.4 assists, and 1.5 steals during his career, can be a top-10 fantasy option. However, he'll need to stay healthy, which has been an issue in the past.
