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.
Analysis
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.
Analysis
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.

Scores 19 points with three treys
Ball produced 19 points (7-19 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Sunday's 114-99 loss to the Celtics.
Analysis
Ball got off to a sluggish start in this one, opening the game with six straight misses, and he was scoreless through the third quarter of action. However, he caught fire during the final frame, scoring 12 of his 19 points on 5-for-7 shooting, as he attempted to will his team to victory. Ultimately, with the rest of his teammates struggling, the Hornets couldn't mount a comeback and dropped their second straight game.
