The Charlotte Hornets will be without LaMelo Ball due to an ankle injury as they face the Milwaukee Bucks on February 5. The Hornets' injury report also includes Grant Williams, Brandon Miller, and Tre Mann.

Lee was told postgame of Ball’s latest status. MRI results on his left ankle confirmed that it is a left ankle sprain, and the Hornets said their guard will be re-evaluated in one week, news that the head coach welcomed but still leaves his team in a bit of limbo at present.
