Scores 18 points with full line
Ball contributed 18 points (6-15 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 129-108 win over the Pacers.
Analyse
The Hornets have now won eight of their last 10 games and boast 18 victories of at least 20 points, a new franchise record. Ball has been balling since the All-Star break with averages of 20.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 6.7 assists, 4.0 triples, 1.3 steals and just 2.1 turnovers per contest, which has been good enough for top-30 value in 9-cat leagues.

First double-double since March
Ball finished with 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, 11 assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Thursday's 127-107 win over the Suns.
Analyse
This was Ball's first double-double since March 17, and his second since the All-Star break, but the star guard continues to have a massive influence on offense for a rising Hornets team. Ball is averaging 20.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.3 steals per game since the All-Star break. Even if he has failed to reach the 20-point mark in his last three outings, Ball should remain a reliable starter across all fantasy formats due to his ability to fill the stat sheet.
