Lonzo Ball could be headed back to the sidelines.

The Los Angeles Lakers point guard is dealing with a minor left knee sprain and is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies, the team announced.

Ball, 20, injured the knee in Saturday's win over the Dallas Mavericks and underwent a precautionary MRI on Sunday after waking up with soreness. He recorded nine points, seven rebounds, seven assists, and a steal in 43 minutes in the 107-101 victory.

The No. 2 pick recently recovered from a shoulder injury that cost him six games, and the Lakers were winless over that span.

Ball is averaging 10.2 points, 7.1 rebounds, 7.1 assists, and 1.5 steals in 33.9 minutes this season. The Lakers have won four of five games since his return to the lineup.
