Ball underwent surgery to repair his knee injury last January and the Bulls hoped to have him back in 6-8 weeks, however, the point guard never showed a full recovery, only appearing in 35 games last season.

The Bulls will reevaluate Ball next week in Chicago, after spending weeks rehabbing in Los Angeles.
Ball’s injury history could become his Achilles heel in his walk in the NBA, not in vain he has missed 98 games in 5 NBA seasons due to various discomforts, ESPN recalled.
Ball’s incidence in the Bulls game is very high, not in vain the team only won 19 of its last 42 games without the point guard, falling to be the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference, which cost him to face the Milwaukee Bucks in the playoffs.
