Hornets Coach Steve Clifford said, “Fingers crossed that it is not something serious.” LaMelo is expected to undergo more tests on Tuesday. Steve Clifford also mentioned that LaMelo Ball and center Mason Plumlee, who sprained his left foot and left the game early, won’t play in Wednesday night’s preseason game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Ball had nine points and six rebounds before exiting the game. He is considered a vital cog of the Hornets’ offense, averaging 20.1 points, 7.6 assists, and 6.7 rebounds per game last season.

LaMelo Ball was driving the left side of the court when Washington Wizard’s Anthony Gill inadvertently stepped on Ball’s foot, causing the pro player’s ankle to twist awkwardly. Ball fell and remained on the floor for several minutes before grabbing his feet and somehow started walking to the free throw line. He shot two free throws, was immediately taken out of the game, and headed straight to the locker room.
