The chilling update on Lonzo Ball: “He should retire”
At 25, Lonzo Ball should have established himself as one of the best point guards in the NBA, he who is also good at the organization of the game than in defense… But touched in the knee for more than a year, he should know a white season, or even worse. After the latest update on his condition, some fear a Yao Ming-like fate and early retirement.
Among the most disappointing teams of the season are the Bulls, who currently sit 10th in the Eastern Conference with a 23-26 record. If a qualification in the playoffs is not to be excluded with the play in, the fans undoubtedly expected more players like Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, Nikola Vucevic or even Alex Caruso… Moreover, the leaders could well throw the sponge and set up a few exchanges before the deadline.
But these results can perhaps be explained by the absence of a 25-year-old young man, injured since January 2022. Indeed, Lonzo Ball, an excellent metronome and a great defender, still cannot recover from his knee pain, which is a serious concern in Illinois. Many doctors follow the file, but absolutely no one knows how to put it back on its feet…
Lonzo Ball forced to retire?!
According to @JCowleyHoops on 670 The Score:
1) The Chicago Bulls don’t know why Lonzo Ball is still feeling pain in his knee. The medical staff doesn’t know why there is still pain. Lonzo and his camp also don’t know why.
2) Lonzo has had at least 6 opinions from doctors.

The Bulls don’t know why Lonzo Ball still has knee pain. The medical staff still does not know why he still feels pain. Lonzo and those close to him don’t know either. Lonzo had diagnoses from at least 6 different doctors.
Absent for more than a year for a knee injury, Lonzo Ball still does not know when he will be able to return to the field without pain. The doctors don’t understand, the Bulls don’t understand anymore, and neither does the player. If it is only a question of a white season for the moment, Internet users have reacted to this update as if the leader was heading towards a Yao Ming-style destiny…

We hate to see that, he had so much potential.
Lonzo Ball is a talented point guard, excellent in the organization of the game and impassableissable in defense… Unfortunatelyhe is affected by an unknown injury that no one can treat, so the rest of his career is on hold.
