Jim Eichenhofer reports Lonzo Ball will miss Sunday’s matchup between the New Orleans Pelicans and the Cleveland Cavaliers due to a lingering hip injury.
Ball returned to the court on Apr.4 after missing three weeks. He last played in the Pelicans’ 139-111 loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Apr. 7, playing 28 minutes, scoring 15 points, and three assists. He has appeared in 41 games this season, averaging 32 minutes, 15 points, four rebounds and six assists per game.
Expect Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram to see an increase in production with Ball off out the court.
