Lonzo Ball: "The month leading up to my injury, I consider myself the best point guard in the NBA"

Avoiding extreme situations toughens and can strengthen any athlete. That's what Lonzo Ball hopes will happen in his case, relying on a miraculous recovery and the example of other players who returned to relevance despite their battered knees reducing their physical impact on the game. The Chicago Bulls player could make a comeback this season and is preparing the ground.

He landed in the league with a media halo like we hadn't seen in a while and under the skeptical gaze of all those who were tired of his father and the hype he had created. Being selected by the Lakers did not help him develop with patience, and he only found some peace when he moved to the Pelicans. There, Lonzo Ball began to show clear signs of his great potential, but injuries began to appear, and in Chicago Bulls, just when he was at his best, he suffered one of the worst possible knee injuries a athlete could have.

Many speculated that he would never play at a high level again, being away from the courts for over a year. However, his passion for this sport and daily dedication bring him very close to returning to competitive action. "I feel like the month before my injury was the best point guard in the NBA," he asserts now that he sees himself with possibilities of competing at the elite level again. He can look at the example of Livingston, a man who knew how to reinvent himself and be decisive after a serious knee injury. There is still hope for Lonzo Ball.
