Pelicans' Lonzo Ball (knees) out again on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball will not play Friday in the team's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

What It Means:

Ball is dealing with something called bilateral knee tendinopathy, which doesn't seem fun. It's unclear how long he'll be sidelined. Nickeil Alexander-Walker figures to get the start once again in his place.

In 9 games this season, Ball has averaged 12.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 26.8 FanDuel points.
