The Chicago Bulls ended their 2024-25 regular season on a high note, winning 15 of their last 20 games. Still, one play-in tournament loss to the Miami Heat cut their season short.<\/p>\n

The Bulls had a very up-and-down campaign, prominently led by their standout guard duo of Josh Giddey and Coby White down the stretch, but there were a few other highlights that the team can look forward to.<\/p>\n

Lonzo Ball missed the entire 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons due to injury, and after many feared he would not be able to play again, he returned to action.<\/p>\n

Ball played 35 games and made 14 starts this season after returning from his long injury absence. The 27-year-old point guard averaged 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.3 steals in 22.2 minutes per game, but his season was still cut short.<\/p>\n

Ball missed the last 22 games of the regular season and their play-in tournament matchup after suffering a sprained wrist.<\/p>\n

Now, heading into a long offseason, Ball gave a new injury update on his wrist and revealed his main goal for the summer.<\/p>\n

“Just getting healthy man, getting back on the court,” Ball said about the offseason. “Tuning up for next year. I’ve got a long summer. Unfortunately, [my wrist] is still f*****g with me to be honest. Hopefully a couple more weeks it’ll be good.”<\/p>\n

The Bulls signed Ball to a two-year contract extension this season after seeing what he is capable of when healthy, so getting him back on the court and ready for next season is certainly a priority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
