Bulls' Lonzo Ball: Downgraded to out for Monday

Ball (knee) won't be available for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

As expected, Ball will be sidelined for a second straight game while he contends with left knee pain. The Bulls haven't suggested that Ball's injury is a long-term concern, but his absence is a less-than-ideal development with fellow starting guard Zach LaVine (knee) also headed for a multi-game absence. Expect Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu to serve as the starters out of the backcourt as the Bulls begin a four-game week.
