根据马克·埃弗斯利的说法，首发控球后卫隆佐·鲍尔正在从上赛季困扰他的左膝的伤病中恢复过来。但这位芝加哥公牛队总经理承认，如果比赛现在正在进行，他不确定球是否能打中。
“目前正在洛杉矶训练，仍在进行康复，”埃弗斯利星期四晚上在洛杉矶鲍尔的休赛期场地说道。“我们每周都派绩效员工去看他，跟踪他的进度。所有报告都很好。他正在进步。”
1月28日，鲍尔接受了关节镜手术，修复了撕裂的左半月板。当时，公牛队表示，球会在六到八周后回来。但在手术前持续的骨头擦伤使得本赛季剩下的时间里，公牛队在季后赛首轮输给了密尔沃基雄鹿队。
“这可能是我们需要和演出人员谈谈的事情，”当被问及如果现在比赛还在进行的话，鲍尔能否上场时，埃弗斯利说。“我现在不能打这个电话。我可以告诉你，他正在康复，正在进步。”
当被问及是否希望球能在10月份的训练营中准备好时，埃弗斯利说：“我当然希望如此。”
鲍尔在受伤之前在公牛队的第一个赛季开局很好。在35场比赛中，他场均得到13分和5.1次助攻，而在每场比赛超过7次的尝试中，他在3分范围内命中率为42.3%。他的防守敏锐度和在过渡期推球的能力是球队身份的决定性特征。
公牛队在有球的比赛中以22-13结束。

Ball making progress in knee rehabilitation
原文：
According to Marc Eversley, starting point guard Lonzo Ball is making progress in his rehabilitation from the troubles that plagued his left knee last season. But the Chicago Bulls general manager acknowledged he's unsure if Ball could play if games were ongoing right now.
"Currently working out in LA, still doing his rehab," Eversley said Thursday night of Ball's offseason location in Los Angeles. "We have sent our performance staff to see him every week and track his progress. All reports are good. He's making progress."
Ball underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn left meniscus on Jan. 28. At the time, the Bulls said Ball would return in six to eight weeks. But a persistent bone bruise that preceded the surgery sidelined Ball for the remainder of the season and the Bulls' first-round playoff loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.
"That’s something we probably need to talk to the performance staff about," Eversley said when asked if Ball could play if games were ongoing now. "That’s not a call I can make now. I can just tell you that he’s rehabbing and he’s making progress."
Asked if he expects Ball to be ready for training camp in October, Eversley said: "I certainly hope so."
Ball enjoyed a strong start to his first season with the Bulls before his injury woes. In 35 games, he averaged 13 points and 5.1 assists while s hooting 42.3 percent from 3-point range on over 7 attempts per game. His defensive acumen and ability to push the ball in transition stood as defining traits to the team's identity.
The Bulls finished 22-13 in games in which Ball played.
