Live Bar Jan. 21 Today the Bulls officially announced that team defender Ronzo Ball will undergo knee surgery and is expected to be absent for 6-8 weeks.
According to Woj added, sources revealed that Bauer will travel to California in the coming days for arthroscopic surgery to repair a slightly torn meniscus.
The Bulls and Ball's agent, Rich Paul, had discussed various options with doctors, but surgery was deemed necessary because Ball had a mild meniscal tear and recent non-surgical treatments had not been satisfactory. In addition, the reporter also revealed that the bull initially thought that Bauer was just a bone abrasion, but did not expect a slight tear in the meniscus of his left knee.
This season, Ball has played in 35 games, averaging 13 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.8 steals per game.
