Witnesses also claimed that when Ball got out of the Hummer, he got into a Lamorghini. Both the Hummer and the sedan were towed away.

The Hornets are set to play the Houston Rockets on Thursday at home, and as of now, it doesn't seem like Ball will be on the injury report because of anything due to the accident.
Over the past few weeks, the Hornets have been one of the hottest teams in the league and have climbed the Eastern Conference standings after sitting outside the Play-In at one point.
