Hits six triples in loss
Ball closed Monday's 123-113 loss to the Bucks with 26 points (9-23 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes.
Analyse
Ball knocked down six-plus three-pointers for the third time this season, finishing as Charlotte's second-leading scorer in the loss. The Hornets continue to be mindful of the 24-year-old's playing time after an injury-riddled start to the season. While he hasn't logged more than 29 minutes in any of his last six appearances following a three-game absence due to a left ankle bone bruise, he has scored at least 22 points in five of those outings. The star point guard also led the first unit in assists Monday, dishing out at least seven for the third time in his last four outings.

Team-high 22 points Friday
Ball posted 22 points (7-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal over 29 minutes during the Hornets' 120-105 win over the Magic on Friday.
Analyse
It wasn't an efficient night from the field for Ball, but he still managed to lead the Hornets in scoring and extended his streak of 20-plus points to three games. Since returning from a five-game absence due to an ankle injury, Ball has averaged 20.8 points, 8.4 assists, 3.6 rebounds, 4.8 threes and 1.0 steals over 26.0 minutes per game. Kon Knueppel left in the second quarter and was unable to return due to a right ankle injury, so Ball would be in line for more usage on offense if the former were to miss time.
