Lonzo Ball has been dealing with a debilitating knee injury for quite some time now. Overall, it is an injury that forced him to take an extended break from the game of basketball. We haven't seen him on the court in over 900 days, which is truly sad when you stop and think about it. He has gone through multiple surgeries and even had to go and get a cartilage transplant done. It just goes to show that his injury was more than just a simple tweak.
Despite all of this, Ball has been working hard to get himself back in a position where he can be serviceable out on the basketball court. It's been a long road, but it seems like he is finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. We know this because TMZ recently caught up with the Chicago Bulls star at the airport. The outlet asked him about his future and whether or not he will get to play this season. Luckily for Bulls fans, he gave an answer that is definitely going to inspire some hope.

He notes that he will be on the court soon, although he is not putting a date on it just yet.

Either way, it does seem like we should be getting good news on Lonzo, very soon. If you are a Bulls fan, you have to feel at least a bit more excited about the season knowing Zo is returning. However, with DeMar DeRozan gone, there is no telling whether or not the team can be competitive.
