Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball has been ruled out for the rest of the NBA season as he recovers from knee surgery.
The 24-year-old underwent an operation on his left knee in Los Angeles on January 28.
Chicago on Wednesday stated that Ball “continues to experience pain with high-level physical activity” and will not play again this season.
Ball will undergo treatment and rehabilitation on a daily basis to ensure he is ready for the start of the 2022-23 campaign.
The former Los Angeles Lakers and New Orleans Pelicans player was expected to return in six to eight weeks after going under the knife over two months ago.
He averaged 13 points, 5.1 assists and 5.4 rebounds for the Bulls this season.
The Bulls are sixth in the Eastern Conference and guaranteed a playoff place despite losing back-to-back games against the Miami Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks.
