After his injury, Lonzo Ball has been out of court for a year. He has had two surgeries to fix his injured knee. The 25-year-old got sidelined due to concerns about his injuries. This, without a doubt, had the Chicago Bulls fans worried. However, following the surgeries, the posts about his rehabilitation seemed to go viral amongst the netizens. Recently, a video of the former UCLA star working out with a free-standing punching bag has been circling around on the internet. Undoubtedly, the video caught the attention of the fans.
Ball suffered a torn left meniscus, about a year ago. Although he was provided with six to eight weeks of recovery time, he encountered multiple setbacks. He underwent surgery at two different times, as well. With the rehabilitation activities, the basketball star might hope to return to the court soon enough. However, fans simply didn’t encourage his boxing skills, as a video goes viral on Instagram.
