After missing two straight NBA seasons, Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball is expected to make his return to basketball in Wednesday night's preseason home game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, sources told ESPN.
Ball, 26, last played in a game for Chicago on Jan. 14, 2022. Multiple procedures on his left knee since then include a rare double cartilage transplant.
A team official confirmed that the No. 2 pick in the 2017 NBA draft is on track to debut on Wednesday. This signifies a major comeback to basketball for Ball, who underwent a rare cartilage transplant surgery in May 2023.
