Bulls' Lonzo Ball Misses Games, Not Shut Down for Season

Lonzo Ball of the Chicago Bulls has missed several games this season due to a right wrist injury, which has also sidelined him previously. Despite this ongoing issue, head coach Billy Donovan confirmed there are no plans to shut Ball down for the remainder of the season, as doctors have not recommended that course of action. Ball is currently focused on returning to the court when he feels comfortable, with no immediate plans for surgery either. He has played in 35 games this season, averaging 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. The Bulls are in a tight race for a play-in spot in the Eastern Conference, currently sitting in 10th place. As the regular season nears its end, the team remains hopeful for Ball's return before the playoffs.
