More on this storyline
Rob Schaefer: Lonzo Ball continues to do straight-ahead running as he rehabs knee, per Billy Donovan. Next steps: Change of direction running + ramp up intensity of sprints On Friday, Ball will be 5 weeks into 6-8 week recovery timeline. Donovan: “Nothing has changed with his time schedule” -via Twitter @rob_schaef / February 28, 2022
KC Johnson: Two more things after listening to Donovan’s pregame. The fact Lonzo Ball remains on the 6-8 week timeline is significant. As Donovan previously mentioned, surgeons didn’t fully know extent of meniscus damage until they began surgery. -via Twitter @KCJHoop / January 28, 2022
KC Johnson: Lonzo Ball surgery had no surprises, went well. Per Billy Donovan. -via Twitter @KCJHoop / January 28, 2022
