LaMelo Ball was involved in a traffic accident on Thursday that resulted in his Hummer losing a wheel. Later that night, he started the Hornets' home game against the Rockets. Ball played 31 minutes for Charlotte and shot 5-of-14 from the field for 11 points in a loss to Houston.
After the game, Ball spoke with the media and was asked about the crash. His responses were short and it sounded like someone from Hornets public relations said that was enough. Ball made a quick exit.
