Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ball has been dealing with ankle soreness and sat out the second leg of a back-to-back game on Saturday. His absence would be a blow to the Hornets, who are already struggling with a 9-30 record this season. Ball has been a key contributor for Charlotte, averaging 25.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 7.8 assists, and 1.8 steals per game. The Hornets will likely turn to Terry Rozier to pick up the slack if Ball is unable to play. The Timberwolves, however, are known for their strong defense, ranking first in defensive efficiency. This could make scoring difficult for Charlotte even with Ball in the lineup. The Hornets will need a strong performance from their supporting cast if they hope to secure a victory on Monday night.
