Lonzo Ball’s injury status for Chicago Bulls vs. Brooklyn Nets

The Chicago Bulls may not be the most talked about team in the NBA, but they have been a lot of fun to watch this early regular season. After a 20-point comeback against the Orlando Magic, they are now the third seed with a 3-2 record.

What the Chicago Bulls have ahead of them tonight is the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn may have a 2-3 record, but they are also a team that just defeated the Memphis Grizzlies. Chicago will likely have to play the match undermanned.

The Chicago Bulls have officially announced that Lonzo Ball is out with a sprained right wrist. Ball is expected to miss 10 game days with the Bulls and has already missed one game. Ball suffered the injury during a 126-123 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.

A previous MRI showed Ball’s wrist sprain to be between Grade 1 and Grade 2. When previously asked about the injury, Ball said he could risk raising the injury to Grade 3 if he played with it.

“If I play on it now while it’s still swollen, it could go to Grade 3. That would require surgery,” Ball said. “I’m obviously trying to avoid that. Let the swelling go down, hopefully tape it down and move on.”

This season, Lonzo Ball is averaging 4.7 points, 3.7 assists and 2.7 rebounds while shooting 35.7% from the field.

The Chicago Bulls face the Brooklyn Nets tonight at 7:30 pm EST.
