LaMelo Ball
Hornets
Injury
LaMelo Ball has been cleared to play Thursday against the Pacers after being upgraded from probable. Despite his availability, Ball’s performances in January have been underwhelming, averaging only 15.0 points and 5.8 assists across four games. Fantasy managers are looking for a resurgence as the Hornets’ floor general aims to bounce back, especially on the second night of back-to-back games following a solid 15-point, 7-rebound, and 7-assist outing against the Raptors.
