Lonzo Ball, the Chicago Bulls' talented point guard, is making progress toward his long-awaited return to the NBA court after a two-year hiatus.

The No. 2 overall selection of the 2017 NBA Draft was seen getting shots up in the Bulls' facility on Monday morning as he works his way back into game shape.

Although he has been ruled out for this season, Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said last month that Ball is no longer suffering from pain in his knee and the team is optimistic that he'll return to the court.

The 26-year-old Ball averaged 13.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists when he last played over two seasons ago before going down with a serious knee injury, forcing him to miss two full seasons of basketball.
