Bulls guard Lonzo Ball reportedly could miss another 6 months with third knee surgery

Lonzo Ball’s return to the court could be further away than previously expected.

The Chicago Bulls guard might need a third surgery on the right knee injury that’s forced him to miss the past 14 months, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Ball hasn’t played since Jan. 14, 2022, and was recently ruled out for the rest of this season. If he undergoes a third procedure, he could need another six months of recovery and rehabilitation, per Wojnarowski. The Bulls and Ball’s representatives, Klutch Sports, are still mulling the decision, Wojnarowski reported.
