Despite the Charlotte Hornets poor start to the 2024-25 season, LaMelo Ball has been playing like a superstar. The former No. 3 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft is healthy and playing like an All-Star. But there might be a little cause for concern. LaMelo Ball was placed on the Hornets’ injury report ahead of their game against the New York Knicks.
LaMelo Ball is just one of several Hornets players that will miss the team’s game against the Knicks on Friday due to injury, as per team PR. Ball, who has been healthy this season, suffered a calf injury towards the end of the team’s loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday.
