Knee injury
Lonzo Ball was a revelation last season with the Chicago Bulls. He was instrumental in giving the team a warm start while proving to be a strong defensive player and a skilled passer. After that he got injured in his knee.
Ball missed the final two months of the 2021–22 NBA season. The Bulls slid down the stretch, leading 19-23 after Ball’s first surgery.
Ball was expected to be fully recovered and ready to lead the Bulls by the start of the 2022–23 NBA season, but his knee remains a major issue. Ball, who will have his second knee surgery on Wednesday, said he is currently unable to run or jump on his knee and is still in pain to walk up stairs. He said doctors are “a bit surprised” that he is still struggling so much because of the injury.

Lonzo Ball’s net worth is estimated to be around $35 million.
