CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — LaMelo Ball’s frustrating, injury-plagued season could be over after the point guard broke his right ankle in Charlotte’s 117-106 win over the Detroit Pistons on Monday night.
Ball has already missed 27 games this season after he sprained his left ankle on three separate occasions, beginning in the preseason.
