Lonzo Ball ruled out for entire 2023-24 season by Bulls.

The Chicago Bulls do not expect Lonzo Ball to return to the court next season as he continues to recover from his third knee surgery since January 2022. The team will prepare for a second straight season without him and will extend qualifying offers to both Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White. The Bulls may prioritize White and possibly make him the starter. Patrick Beverley wants to re-sign with the team, but the Bulls likely can't afford his services. Ball's rehab is going well, but his future remains murky.
