Damn it, Lonzo! Try it!
chicago bulls point guard lonzo ball It was my first time on an NBA court in about three years, and frankly, it was an unbelievable sight.
Ball hasn’t suited up for Chicago since then. January 14, 2022 For some knee surgeries involving cartilage transplants. Everything was unknown for the Bulls entering the preseason, with no idea how the knee would hold up when play began.

Well, some questions were answered Wednesday night when Ball made his preseason debut, playing 15 minutes against the Minnesota Timberwolves. After receiving a standing ovation from the Chicago crowd, he made a 3-point shot almost immediately after a flashy assist from center field. Nikola Vucevic.
And from there, my guy blossomed, finishing with a stat line of 10 points, 1 assist, 1 rebound, 1 steal, and 1 block.

Let’s hope this continues for the entire season. And moving on from there…it’s going to be an interesting campaign in Chi, to say the least.
