Hornets rookie phenom LaMelo Ball out indefinitely with fractured bone in wrist
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball, the front-runner to win NBA Rookie of the Year, fractured a bone in his right wrist, the team announced on Sunday. Ball injured the wrist in Charlotte’s 125-98 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday. Ball injured his wrist in the second quarter but continued to play while favoring the wrist. He played just 75 seconds in the fourth quarter, and Charlotte coach James Borrego said he didn’t play him because of the injury. When the team arrived in San Antonio, Ball had an MRI and was diagnosed with a fractured bone. He will be re-evaluated and get another opinion. The Hornets listed him as out indefinitely, but it’s likely Ball will miss the remainder of the season. It’s a significant setback for Ball and the Hornets, who are 20-21 and in eighth place in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Without Ball, Devonte’ Graham will return to the starting point guard spot, and Terry Rozier and Gordon Hayward will also handle more playmaking responsibilities. Ball was the midst of a fantastic season , averaging 15.9 points, 6.1 assists and 5.9 rebounds. The No. 3 overall pick in the 2020 draft gave the Hornets a huge lift this season with his playmaking. He was named Eastern Conference rookie of the month in January and February and had created distance between himself and other first-year players for Rookie of the Year. "He’s brought us a jolt of energy and a passion for the game that’s very genuine," Hornets coach James Borrego told USA TODAY Sports last month. "He ignites our locker room, he ignites our huddles. The positivity and joy more than anything on the floor has been a great jolt to our program. "He’s a real joy to coach. He’s been fantastic in his play. I love having him."

'I have to play for my sanity': how the NBA reacted when it came to a halt
Hris Paul dribbles on. The 11-time All-Star point guard – or, “Point God,” as he is known – is midway through his 16th NBA season and his first with the Phoenix Suns, his fifth team and third in three years. The Suns are currently flying high in the Western Conference after a decade of disappointment, and have resumed playing at home before modest crowds of 3,000, in deference, of course, to the coronavirus.Read Full StoryNbaBlack PeopleGame PointWNBAPoint GuardLove And BasketballThe Phoenix SunsHBOInstagramThe Dallas MavericksDisney WorldBlack AmericansThe Los Angeles ClippersThe Milwaukee BucksNHLAntoine FuquaRudy GobertMark CubanAdam SilverGeorge FloydJacob BlakeLizzoDoc Rivers
