Ball has shown immense promise in fantasy, but the past two seasons have been riddled with recurring ankle injuries. The 23-year-old has played only 58 total games during this stretch, but he put up impressive averages of 23.5 points and 3.7 threes on 42/37/85 shooting, 8.3 assists, 5.9 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 34.1 minutes. The 2021-22 All-Star has 10 career triple-doubles in 184 games, showing off his versatility. It hasn't led to winning, though. That, combined with Ball's injuries, are the primary criticisms of the No. 3 overall pick from 2020. Last season was highlighted more by the return of Miles Bridges and the emergence of then-rookie Brandon Miller in the second half of the campaign. Both players are back for 2024-25, and Ball could be asked to share more touches with Miller, but as it stands, Ball is still the engine of the team. If injuries weren't a factor, Ball would likely be an automatic first-round selection. Managers will have to decide how to weigh the past couple years of injury trouble with his youth and upside.
