In Ball’s absence, expect Coby White and rookie Ayo Dosunmu to continue stepping up as their play without Ball and Zach LaVine in the lineup has been impressive, as noted by K.C Johnson of NBCS Chicago.
Zach LaVine, who has missed the last four games after tweaking his left knee last week against the Golden State Warriors, is expected to return ‘in the near future’, per Shams Charania of Stadium.
