Lonzo Ball joined the long list of Chicago Bulls players to enter the NBA’s health and safety protocols ahead of Sunday’s game against the Indiana Pacers.
Ball will not face the Pacers and the guard faces at least 10 days out of action unless he records two negative COVID-19 tests.
The 24-year-old is the 13th man on the Bulls roster to enter the protocols this month.
Three of Chicago’s matches have been postponed in December due to the squad being so severely depleted.
Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan have since been given the green light to return, while Ayo Dosunmu, Matt Thomas, Alize Johnson, Devon Dotson, Coby White and Javonte Green have also cleared protocols.
Tony Bradley, Alfonzo McKinnie, coach Billy Donovan and now Ball are absent.
