LaMelo Ball being helped off the court after reaggravating his left ankle sprain on a court side fan’s foot. The bad luck just keeps on coming in every way possible. – 9:23 PM

If LaMelo is going to go under on a Buddy Hield ball screen (bad idea) then he at least has to be able to cut off the drive. He’s totally out of this play, gets bailed out from a great Plumlee block. pic.twitter.com/GNtZIw4qsw – 7:27 PM

Danny Cunningham: #Cavs list Jarrett Allen (non-COVID illness) as questionable for tomorrow’s game against Charlotte. Dean Wade is doubtful (knee). Charlotte will be without LaMelo Ball (ankle). Gordon Hayward (shoulder) and Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle) are both doubtful. -via Twitter @RealDCunningham / November 17, 2022
Rod Boone: Steve Clifford said LaMelo was in the building today, but didn’t practice and won’t play tomorrow night against Cleveland. “We’ll be without him here,” Clifford said. “I don’t think we have any idea how long.” LaMelo had an X-ray after the game last night. It was negative. pic.twitter.com/YpgIqrXCdu -via Twitter @rodboone / November 17, 2022
Three games into his return, LaMelo Ball is injured again. Ball tweaked his left ankle with just under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. He chased down a loose ball in front of the Hornets’ bench and stepped on a fan’s foot. He immediately began limping, headed straight to the bench and then into the locker room after checking out with 1:36 remaining. Prior to coming up gimpy, Ball pumped in 16 of his game-high 26 points in the second half and hit a season-best five 3-pointers. He was in a pretty good groove. -via Charlotte Observer / November 17, 2022
