Is LaMelo Ball playing tonight? Charlotte Hornets’ injury report for the game against the Brooklyn Nets (February 10, 2025)

LaMelo Ball, who has been averaging 11.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 3.7 assists over the last 20 games, has been an important playmaker for the Hornets. He is most likely going to play tonight and his presence will undoubtedly impact Charlotte’s offensive flow, especially against a Nets team looking to capitalize on their own struggles.

The Hornets, currently 13-37, are already dealing with a -263 scoring differential, ranking 28th in the league with 107.0 points per game. Miles Bridges, the team’s leading scorer at 19.9 points per game, will need to step up in LaMelo Ball’s absence. Meanwhile, the Nets, sitting at 18-34, are also battling injuries, with six players listed on their report, including Bojan Bogdanovic and Cameron Thomas.

The game tips off at 7:30 PM ET and will be broadcast on YES and FDSSE. Fans can also stream the matchup on Fubo, though regional restrictions may apply.


For the Hornets, the injury woes extend beyond LaMelo Ball. Mark Williams is out due to a pending trade, while Moussa Diabate and Nick Smith are listed as day-to-day. With so many key players unavailable, Charlotte faces an uphill battle to stay competitive in the Eastern Conference.

The outcome of Monday's game may depend on which club can adjust to their reduced rosters the best as both teams deal with their injury-plagued seasons. The Hornets' main priorities will be to make up for Ball's absence and maintain their limited aspirations of making the playoffs.
