Lonzo Ball: MRI confirms mild calf strain

Ball was held out of the Las Vegas Summer League championship game because of
the calf injury, but as expected, it’s nothing too serious. It’s being
considered a mild calf strain, which should be healed by the time training camp
arrives. Ball is coming off one of the best Summer League showings ever with
averages of 16.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, 9.2 assists and 1.2 blocks across 34.6
minutes, which earned him MVP rights at the completion of the tournament. Ball
appears to be locked in as the team’s point guard of the future.
