Hornets' LaMelo Ball exits loss after reinjuring left ankle

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- LaMelo Ball's first home game of the season didn't go anywhere near as well as he had hoped.

Not only did the Charlotte Hornets lose 125-113 to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, but Ball reinjured his left ankle when he stepped on a fan's foot with 1 minute, 34 seconds left in the game.

Ball was trying to save a ball from going out of bounds when he stepped on a seated fan's foot near the Hornets bench as he tried to brace himself from going into the crowd.
