Lonzo has really struggled with this , hope the surgery gets done well enough so he has a log career.
*I enjoy watching his game. :bowdown:

Damn this dude too young to be having all these surgeries he’s had so far

Nice that you put L. Ball so we know this isnt about L or L.

nbc sports : Instead, though he did exhibit periods of progress during the offseason, he ultimately kept experiencing discomfort at times where he tried to increase activity. A source said Ball even experimented with changing his gait to address the problem. As recently as mid-August, there was even optimism that Ball would still be ready for training camp and that the strength exercises designed to address the issue would work.

Instead, Ball is headed to another procedure. And the Bulls, who know all about waiting for impactful point guards to return from injury, will begin the 2022-23 season without the core continuity that the franchise desired.

Sucks for the bulls. He had a HUGE impact when he was on the floor. Impact that went way beyond his stat line.

This dude’s body is mad fragile. It’s been almost a year since he exited Chicago’s lineup. Was doing therapy for like half a year or more and now needs surgery? Good lord the fragility.

Meniscus injuries are ****ed up.

They are vast differences in severity, treatments and debilitation depending on a variety of factors including types of teares and genetics.

Unfortunately this is an example of an unfortunate and serious injury for Lonzo.

Looks like Robert Williams is also going through a similar thing now.

damn. they need lonzo. he's their best perimeter defender alongside caruso. and he was hitting his threes.


their ceiling is much lower without him. they were a very good team when all of the injured perimeter guys were healthy (zach caruso and lonzo)

Don't understand why this didn't happen like in March.
