Bulls' Lonzo Ball: Won't play Tuesday

Ball (knee) won't play in Tuesday's preseason game against the Cavaliers, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.

Ball has been scrimmaging at recent practices, but he's still not quite ready for his first game action since January of 2022. Given the lengthy layoff, Ball will certainly have major restrictions when he is cleared to play, which could come Saturday versus Memphis.
