LaMelo Ball Uninjured After Two-Car Collision In Downtown Charlotte

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball was not injured after being involved in a two-car collision in downtown Charlotte on Wednesday, according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss details of the crash.

A police report was not immediately available.

Ball appeared to be driving through an intersection when his camouflage-colored, custom-made Hummer collided with another vehicle shortly before 5 p.m., according to video obtained by WSOC-TV. The station later posted footage of Ball, wearing an aqua-colored Hornets hoodie, exiting his truck and entering another car before being driven away. Police were on the scene at the time.

Video showed the left front tire of Ball's truck was missing. The driver of the other vehicle calmly exited his car and began walking toward Ball's truck, though no information was available on that individual.

The Hornets held practice earlier in the day. Charlotte, winners of 10 of its past 11 games, is scheduled to host the Houston Rockets on Thursday night as teams return from the All-Star break.
