Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball and Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball shared a moment.
Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball and Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball have been in the spotlight since their time at Chino Hills high school. Both top-three NBA draft picks, these two Ball brothers are still competing at the highest level of professional basketball.
While injuries have been an issue for both LaMelo and Lonzo, both have had some big moments in their respective careers, and the younger Ball brother was amid a career season before going down with a calf injury. Still sidelined with that injury when the Hornets and Bulls faced off on Friday, LaMelo watched his brother from the bench.Prior to his injury, LaMelo was averaging a career-high 31.1 points. The Hornets are just 7-18 this season, and have very little chances of making a playoff push.
As for the Bulls, they are 11-15 and still in the mix for a play-in spot, but that is seemingly not their goal this season as players like Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic are expected to be traded. Lonzo Ball could also be dealt if he can stay healthy and productive.Joey Linn is a credentialed writer covering the NBA for Sports Illustrated's FanNation.
