Lonzo Ball may be headed to the Bay.
The Warriors have their “sights set on adding” the oft-injured former No. 2 overall pick, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer.
Chris Haynes reported that “multiple teams have requested” to look at Ball’s medicals “in order to make a determination on signing” him.
Ball, 28, was traded by the Cavaliers to the Jazz on Wednesday in exchange for two second-round picks.
Shortly after the deal was made, it was revealed that Utah was planning to waive Ball, giving the UCLA product the chance to choose his next destination.
At the time, the Wizards and Hornets, among other teams, were reportedly interested in Ball.
In 35 games for Cleveland this season, Ball averaged 4.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.9 assists in 20.9 minutes.
Ball has bounced around since being taken by the Lakers in the 2017 NBA Draft.
In 2019, he was dealt to the Pelicans in the blockbuster that sent Anthony Davis to Southern California before getting traded once again to the Bulls in 2021.
Injuries have plagued Ball throughout his NBA career, but never more so than in Chicago, when he missed two full seasons from 2022-24 with various knee problems and procedures.
At points during the rehab process, it appeared Ball’s career could be over, with the flashy ball-handler telling reporters that he couldn’t “run or jump” in September 2021.
He triumphantly returned early in the 2024-25 season, but recurring wrist injuries limited him to just 35 games.
Ball signed a two-year, $20 million deal with Chicago during that season but was dealt to Cleveland over the summer.
