Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Won't return Friday

Ball won't return to Friday's game against the Raptors due to left ankle soreness.

Ball will end his evening with 11 points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one steal and two turnovers in 12 minutes. If Ball needs to miss Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Brandon Miller would see a large spike in usage and there would be more minutes available for Sion James and KJ Simpson.
