This is so devastating as a Chicago Bulls fan. Man, I swear we are cursed at the Point Guard spot. I always thought that Lonzo Ball is the PERFECT Point Guard the Bulls need -- Pure playmaking first, improved and legit 3-pt shooter, and plays defense at an All-Defense level (if he didn't get injured). I do hope he can come back 100%, but his history of injuries has stockpiled into a level of worrying.
Hate to say it but it sees like his career is over. Which sucks cause I love how he plays the game. He’s perfect fit for bulls. We are seriously cursed at the PG position.
Yep. I fear his career is heading towards early retirement, but I like what A.M Hoops brought up and it's Shaun Livingston. Yeah, Lonzo might have to go into NBA career retirement, but if he can get back and maintain, he could have a post-injury Shaun Livingston future ahead.
As a Physical therapist assistant I never condone doing multiple surgeries cause you can never go back to the beginning once it's done. His knee may never be the same and being away for too long from the league can deteriorate his skillset. I wish him the best to a speedy recovery and hopefully he can resume his career to a respectable level.
@@Iaintsayinnothin.. That's exactly correct. Once meniscus is removed you are already prone to accelerating degeneration of the knee and potential early stages towards getting the knee replaced. Sure, the upside is he is young and can bounce back. But, with multiple surgeries under his belt, his verticle and burst of speed will be reduced and any form of quick cuts and pivots will not be good as his career progresses if he is to get clearance and resume play. He definitely will go the route of Brandon Roy if they dont figure this out.
Lonzo should go overseas so they could try to figure out what is going on with his knee . And he should also rehab properly when he is done as well. The medical doctors in places like germany and france are really good he should def give it a try . And hopefully it all goes well 🙏
Can't agree more. Also, in Europe the doctors are motivate to help the patient, not by how much money they can squeeze out of you, which makes a HUGE difference in the medical decisions they make.
My heart goes out to Lonzo. There is nothing worse for a sportsman than being unable to play the game you love. It is soul destroying and mentally puts you in a low and dark place. Lonzo over and above the pain of his knee, is in a really rough place.
Really sad about Lonzo, was one of the players that really made me fall in love with the NBA. Hate to see him going through this, but I'm hopeful he can make it out the other side
He been trash 75% of his career. How did he make you fall in love with the NBA when there have been a million superstars before him? D’aaron Fox came in the same draft class and he’s BALLIN right now 🤦🏿♂️
@@NoName718. bro u got a problem with him liking a player. He doesn't have to like a player that's good or has been good his entire career. Lonzo literally helped the Bulls clinch the 1 seed. He might be a Bulls fan like me or just a Lonzo fan. Stop hating bro.
@@UsmanKhan-gy4he He’s nothing but a bandwagon fan. He only liked Lomzo cause he had a cult following in hs. He like what everybody else likes. I can make fun of whoever I want. In real life I do it so it won’t stop on UA-cam. Handle it however you feel.
I really miss this guy playing for my Bulls... I don't even care if he plays another game for us, I just want him to recover and be healthy and live up to the potential he had coming into the league...
That's why you have to respect Kawhi. Spurs tried to force him to play after he had played 9 games and still felt pain. Only then did he get a second opinion and the rest is history. He's never been the same since that injury.
I feel so bad for Lonzo. All this from a minor meniscus injury which has evolved into some weird pain and no one can figure out why. I hope the best for him and hopefully a full recovery.
He's young enough to still have a bounce back. He HAS to get the proper rehab and give himself everything he needs to heal. Not 80% not 90%. 100% before you start hitting sharp cuts and basketball moves.
Man, this is such a shame. Lonzo with his fixed jumper is an all-star caliber player and could take the Bulls deep into the playoffs, and now is facing retirement. I'm stil rooting for him, but things looks incredibly bad with these reports. This is sad, Lonzo is a kind of player that's disappearing from the NBA as a whole, and I really wanted to see him succeed after being shitted on so mercilessly in LA.
Man, he really was my fav player, he could get the bulls to the playoffs or even the finals with Demar, zach, vucevic and even pat bev. I wish him the best man 😢
Pels specifically didn’t wanna offer him the money he wanted because of their worries of his potential injuries not because they didn’t think he fits or isn’t a third option. Even then, even the pels would surely be surprised by all of this
Its wild to open up a video about a man struggling to walk and going for his 3rd surgery in a year with such lack of sympathy and with that type of energy. Cmon man
Lonzo himself seem like a chill dude, but his knee issue is definitely Lavar's fault. His training method kills the knees, and the kid was not able to grow normally
I hope he bounces back ❤❤❤ for real, imagine dedicating your life to something and never being able to play again? Like its not just him not being able to play in the NBA on the line, but just basketball in general. Hopefully we won't see this devastion occur!! 😢
Ball was on his way to prove his doubters wrong with the Bulls. That team was HOT with him in it. Such a shame, right when he's about to be an excellent player, his legs gave out...
Lonzo is quickly speed running the Brandon Roy career arc and this is tragic to see 😞 I was hyped when we drafted him and even though he didn’t break out until we traded him I’ve always wanted him to do well.
I think Lonzo ball's injury case is similar to Luol Deng's injury Deng has some pains in his young career as a Bulls player and the staff didn't know what he has and he was misdiagnosed of Menegitis and they almost killed him with giving him wrong treatements Lonzo could end up like Deng (in my opinion no offense bulls fans)
Is the reason why the Chicago Bulls people get injured so much is it because they have a shity medical staff if that's the reason hot damn if I was a young player the Chicago Bulls would be on the bottom of my list behind the Timberwolves in Sacramento Kings
Lonzo needs to talk to Paulo Sousa. Severe knee injury that ended his carreer... for 2 years. Against all odds and medical opinions even the doctor that made surgery didn't want to raise expectation that high. His comeback to win the champions league with Borussia Dortmund is an epic sports history.
I don’t think anybody, especially the surgeon, was like, “Let’s just cut you open again.” 😂 I think they tried, couldn’t identify the problem, and decided they need to do another surgery to investigate and hopefully repair.
Man this is sad to see... Lonzo was pretty good defensively and a pretty good passer and rebounder In the beginning but he just didn't really shoot well .. then over the last couple of seasons he played he really improved his shot.... He was really coming into his own... I hope he comes back for the 2024 -25 season 🙏🏾 I'm going to keep my optimism for him
This is tragic for both Lonzo and the Bulls. Just when Lonzo got to a place where he really shines and was really helping Bulls (they were 1st seed!), this happened :(
Anyone can bounce back again if they don't quit. I hope he recovers soon. He can always pursue his basketball career in other leagues if his NBA stint doesn't work anymore like Dwight Howard
There are so many basketball players that are 1 physical attribute, talent or injury away from playing in the NBA. This is Lonzo’s. Welcome to the club.
As a Bulls fan I thought the contract they gave him was stupid because he was injury prone. I blame the front office. Dude played 35 games what a waste of money.
I swear my favorite players are always injured and can never play a full season or are out of the league before their 30s. D rose, boogie cousins, lonzo ball, jimmy butler, zach lavine, etc.
Lonzo Ball first 5 seasons: 11.9 ppg 5.7 rbg 1.8 spg 6.2 apg 40% FG 36% 3P 57% FT 51.3 TS% Ricky Rubio first 5 seasons 10.1 ppg 4.3 rbg 2.2 spg 8.7 apg 36.8% 2p 31.8% 3p 81.5% FT 49.3% TS Corporate wants you to identify the differences between these two players
He was on his way to being a 5x all defensive member , potentially lead the league in assists a couple times and with a ring could of been a hall of famer.
The thing is, it's not even about money. I was never a ball family fan whatsoever, but this news is hard to hear regardless. Lonzo will do just fine making money regardless if he's playing ball or not, the most devastating part is that he's about to lose the chance to play pro ball ever again. Like that's something every real ball player would trade anything for, especially for us who never had a chance to make it. It hurts that much more seeing someone with the talent n skills make it, but not b able to play due to freak situations like this 😒😔
If there is a silver lining to this terrible situation, at least Lonzo, like Rose, will have enough money to live out the rest of his life very comfortably.
Funny you bring up Andre Roberson. I just went to a Blue game last week and was surprised to see him. And yes, Lonzo is done. With a lot of bball money.
I have a knee injury that didn't respond to treatment. It's a torn medial and lateral meniscus which was caused by a genu varum condition. My doctor is recommending high tibial osteotomy surgery to correct it. Lonzo's experience scares me. 🤕
Doctors made a mistake but won’t admit it. That’s why this knee pain is “mysterious”. They know damn well they messed something up during surgery, but they’ll do anything they can to make sure that they don’t end up in the headlines for ruining one of the NBA’s most valuable assets career.
The fact they cut him open is messed up. Basketball players get these problems. I had similar knee pain because I pushed my self to dunk and ignored muscle imbalances. I rested for a year and I’m basically close to how I felt before.
Lonzo need to go to the warriors steph early in his career had ankle problems he still does but not like before then look at Kd and klay both back to form and Shaun Livingston when he got there
I absolutely feel so bad for Lonzo Ball , I mean honestly this could not have happened to a player like him And let’s face it the Chicago bulls have desperately missed his presence all year But I hope he’s not another Brandon Roy
First of all saying the Pelicans dodged a bullet is complete misinformation. Different circumstances lead to different results and there is no guarantee Lonzo gets injured like this on the Pelicans. Second of all even if Lonzo still gets the same injury with the Pelicans they still didn’t dodge a bullet. Here’s why. Ultimately bailing on Lonzo forced them to find another point guard whom turned out to be Devonte Graham. To aquire Devonte they gave up the 15th pick in last years Draft. Devonte’s salary was 60% that of Lonzo’s for the same 4 years. Devonte was such a disaster the Pelicans were forced two give another team 4 second round picks to get rid of him and clear his salary, which really amounts to 3 given they received a 2nd in the original Lonzo trade. The two players they received in the Lonzo Ball Bulls trade were Garret Temple and Tomas Satoransky. Both of these players turned out to be disasters and one of them (Temple) is still occupying cap space at approximately 5.2 million per year over 3 years. The Pelicans still have him. The second player (Satoransky) was making 6.4 million a year and was a worthless throw-in during a trade. Given that 6.4 million still cost the Pels that year it still equates to about 1.6 million per year over 4 years. That means the combination of these three players cost the Pels over 4 years 18.8 million per year. Lonzo was 20 million per year. Now one more point the players taken in the 2022 NBA draft with the 15th, 16th, and 17th pick were Mark Williams (young promising defensive center), AJ Griffin (3 point marksmen who looks like a steal), and Tari Eason(who is surely a steal and likely top 6 player in the draft. I do believe Willie Green would have selected one of these three as they were clearly the top prospects at that point. Plus given draft history (Herb Jones, Dyson Daniels, Jose Alvarado) Tari Eason would have been the exact kind of player he would have wanted. Furthermore in the case of Mark Williams and AJ Griffin the Pelicans biggest needs were a backup center capable of covering the pick and roll and more three point shooting for Zion. To sum things up the Pelicans saved a million dollars in cap space over 4 years by trading Lonzo. They lost the 15th pick (likely a good young player, maybe great) in the draft and 3 second round picks. So I ask what exactly did the Pelicans gain? They currently have no point guard capable of setting the offense up which is their biggest flaw today. Lonzo fit the Pelicans perfect. He had a great connection with Zion and his teammates loved him. We seen how quick the Bulls ranked without him. So last question wouldn’t have been better had the Pelicans took the risk of keeping Lonzo rather than the way things turned out? I just really don’t want there to be a narrative now about how the trade was great and the Pelicans dodged a bullet. The trade was awful by any standard one can measure. In fact it was likely one of, if not the worst trade in franchise history. Only the Tyson Chandler trade may be worse, given that it led to the departure of Chris Paul.
Lomzo ball has had it eought the Bulls are miss manging his injury and it is ruining his career and cause they don,t know how to fix a injury that should be fixable. and they forced him to put too much pressure on his legs and upper body too early and now the pain has gotten wrose. and also has to do with misscunication between Lonozo and the bulls. he honeslty should leave the bulls if they are hurting his career by giving him the wrong treatmeants.
Hornets should make a move next season a try to grab him then send Terry Rozier to Bulls then Hornets should rebuild 2-3yrs for Lonzo and Lamelo that would be lit if they starts to be healthy
This is so devastating as a Chicago Bulls fan. Man, I swear we are cursed at the Point Guard spot.

Yeah I know what you mean I'm a Bulls fan to and this is really heartbreaking I feel really bad for Lonzo
Hate to say it but it sees like his career is over. Which sucks cause I love how he plays the game. He’s perfect fit for bulls. We are seriously cursed at the PG position.
So Lonzo Ball, Derrick Rose, Jay Williams(now working with ESPN. These are the Bulls guards that I can think of.
Yep. I fear his career is heading towards early retirement, but I like what A.M Hoops brought up and it's Shaun Livingston. Yeah, Lonzo might have to go into NBA career retirement, but if he can get back and maintain, he could have a post-injury Shaun Livingston future ahead.

Skills never goes a way, athleticism n mindset goes
Surgery just gives you a new baseline of health. Rarely does anyone return to 100% or better than pre-injury.
He's played so much for being so young. I have a feeling how many games he played in AAU and high school has a part in how he's so injured
Wishing Mr. Ball a speedy recovery.
Speedy is a stretch now but I hope his career isn't over at this point.

Devonte was such a disaster the Pelicans were forced two give another team 4 second round picks to get rid of him and clear his salary, which really amounts to 3 given they received a 2nd in the original Lonzo trade. The two players they received in the Lonzo Ball Bulls trade were Garret Temple and Tomas Satoransky. Both of these players turned out to be disasters and one of them (Temple) is still occupying cap space at approximately 5.2 million per year over 3 years. The Pelicans still have him. The second player (Satoransky) was making 6.4 million a year and was a worthless throw-in during a trade. Given that 6.4 million still cost the Pels that year it still equates to about 1.6 million per year over 4 years. That means the combination of these three players cost the Pels over 4 years 18.8 million per year. Lonzo was 20 million per year.
Now one more point the players taken in the 2022 NBA draft with the 15th, 16th, and 17th pick were Mark Williams (young promising defensive center), AJ Griffin (3 point marksmen who looks like a steal), and Tari Eason(who is surely a steal and likely top 6 player in the draft. I do believe Willie Green would have selected one of these three as they were clearly the top prospects at that point. Plus given draft history (Herb Jones, Dyson Daniels, Jose Alvarado) Tari Eason would have been the exact kind of player he would have wanted. Furthermore in the case of Mark Williams and AJ Griffin the Pelicans biggest needs were a backup center capable of covering the pick and roll and more three point shooting for Zion.
To sum things up the Pelicans saved a million dollars in cap space over 4 years by trading Lonzo. They lost the 15th pick (likely a good young player, maybe great) in the draft and 3 second round picks. So I ask what exactly did the Pelicans gain? They currently have no point guard capable of setting the offense up which is their biggest flaw today. Lonzo fit the Pelicans perfect. He had a great connection with Zion and his teammates loved him. We seen how quick the Bulls ranked without him.
So last question wouldn’t have been better had the Pelicans took the risk of keeping Lonzo rather than the way things turned out?
I just really don’t want there to be a narrative now about how the trade was great and the Pelicans dodged a bullet. The trade was awful by any standard one can measure. In fact it was likely one of, if not the worst trade in franchise history. Only the Tyson Chandler trade may be worse, given that it led to the departure of Chris Paul.
Lomzo ball has had it eought the Bulls are miss manging his injury and it is ruining his career and cause they don,t know how to fix a injury that should be fixable. and they forced him to put too much pressure on his legs and upper body too early and now the pain has gotten wrose. and also has to do with misscunication between Lonozo and the bulls. he honeslty should leave the bulls if they are hurting his career by giving him the wrong treatmeants.
This reminds me of what happened Brandon Roy
Hornets should make a move next season a try to grab him then send Terry Rozier to Bulls
then Hornets should rebuild 2-3yrs for Lonzo and Lamelo that would be lit if they starts to be healthy
