Lonzo Ball questionable for L.A. Lakers' game vs. Memphis Grizzlies


Lonzo Ball is questionable for the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday.

Ball put in 43 minutes in a 107-101 overtime win over the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday. However, Ball injured his left knee during the game and had an MRI on Sunday, which revealed a minor knee sprain.

The win over the Mavericks was the Lakers' fourth in five games since Ball returned from a shoulder injury.

Ball's return had helped stimulate a turnaround for the Lakers, who had lost nine in a row — Ball had missed six of those games — before their current four-game winning streak. In the five games since his return, Ball has averaged 11.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 7 assists a game.
