Ball got a rousing ovation when he subbed in for Josh Giddey following a timeout midway through the first quarter. It didn’t take Ball long to make an impact. He nailed an open 3-pointer from the left corner off a feed from a driving Nikola Vucevic with 5:25 left in the period, drawing another big roar from the crowd.Bucks are confident they can contend again as long as they can stay healthy“Just blessed, man,” Ball said. “There were a lot of people that helped me get here, not just myself.
The Bulls are still trying to get a handle on how much activity leads to soreness for Ball, let alone how the knee will respond to playing in a game. Chicago also has a crowd in the backcourt, with Coby White coming off a breakthrough season and Giddey in the mix following a trade from Oklahoma City.
