Ball registered 27 points (11-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and three blocks across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 117-112 victory over Utah.
Ball was one assist shy of recording his third straight double-double in Wednesday's win. While the star guard also tallied a season-high three blocks, he continued to struggle with his outside shot. Across Ball's last five outings, he is converting just 28.8 percent of his 13.2 three-point attempts per contest.

Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Double-doubles in loss Sunday
Ball racked up 25 points (9-25 FG, 5-17 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, one block and three steals over 40 minutes during Sunday's 120-113 loss to the Suns.
Ball might have needed 25 shots to score 25 points, but fantasy managers will gladly overlook the efficiency issues given his production across the board. The star floor general has been limited to just seven games since the beginning of December due to several injuries and postponements, but he's been outstanding when available. Since then, he's averaging 26.3 points, 8.6 assists and 5.6 rebounds per contest.

Ball (ankle/wrist) posted 24 points (7-20 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four assists and three rebounds across 33 minutes during Sunday's 115-105 loss to the Cavaliers.
Ball returned to action Sunday after missing the last three games with a left ankle sprain and right wrist sprain.

Even so, fantasy managers who had been stashing Ball in an injured reserve slot can feel comfortable activating him again ahead of the Hornets' four-game week.
