Lonzo Ball Could Play Back-to-Backs This Season
Lonzo Ball didn't shut down the possibility of playing in back-to-back games later in the year. He did say that he doesn't expect to play in both halves early on, which was how he approached that situation last year in Chicago, even when he was healthy. As the season goes on, he could potentially play both games of back-to-backs, though he said it hasn't been something he's discussed with his new team. Cleveland acquired Ball from the Bulls in a trade that sent Isaac Okoro to Chicago. He will help fill in the void left by Ty Jerome's departure via free agency and could get even more work early on depending on the status of Darius Garland (toe). Last year, Ball returned after missing two full seasons and played 35 games for the Bulls, producing 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.3 steals in 22.2 minutes per game. He'll be a key rotation piece for the Cavs and could have fringe fantasy value in the right matchups and situations.
