According to Shams Charania from The Athletic, Ball will undergo a third surgery on his left knee. The procedure is expected to cost the player the majority, if not the most, of the upcoming 2023-24 season, the renowned journalist notes.

The Bulls guard played his last game more than a year ago when scored 15 points in a 42-point loss against the Golden State Warriors.

Throughout the year, Ball underwent two surgeries but the pain and discomfort continued.

Last year, Ball averaged 13 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.1 assists in 35 games. Throughout his career, his numbers are similar - 11.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, 6.2 assists.

After signing a four-year $80 million contract with the New Orleans Pelicans in 2021, Lonzo went to the Bulls in a sign-and-trade deal. He is set to earn just over $20 million next season.
