Hornets' Ball out at least 2 weeks with calf strain
Written by I Dig Sports
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball will miss at least the next two weeks with a left calf strain, the team announced Saturday.
Ball was hurt late in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's loss to the Miami Heat. He sat out Friday's loss to the New York Knicks and has been ruled out for Saturday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
The Hornets said Ball will be reevaluated in two weeks.
Ball has been on a tear of late, averaging 40.3 points over the past four games he has played, including a career-high 50 points last Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Ball is second in the league in scoring, averaging a career-high 31.4 points to go with 6.9 assists and 5.4 rebounds.
The Hornets have lost four straight and six of their past seven.
