In Photos: LaMelo Ball's girlfriend Ana Montana steals the show in aquamarine head-to-toe ensemble during Hornets star's comeback
LaMelo Ball returns with the Charlotte Hornets for his fifth season after a season-ending ankle injury he suffered in January. To support her boyfriend, Ball's girlfriend Ana Montana attended the preseason game against the New York Knicks in an aquamarine head-to-toe ensemble.
The Instagram model posted a series of videos on her social media while she flaunted her dress to the camera.
Sitting courtside, Montana also posted a video from the game on her Instagram, where LaMelo Ball was taking on a New York Knicks defender. Posting the video, she captioned the story,
"My commentary. But he is back."
LaMelo Ball was selected third overall in the 2020 NBA Draft. Despite being one of the best young players in the league, the Horners guard has not been able to guide his team to the playoffs. A large part of the Hornets' failure has been due to Ball's injury troubles.
The Hornets have not made the playoffs in the last eight seasons. They expect Ball to stay healthy next season and end the playoff drought.

"He’s ready 😍😍😍😍🐐🙏🏾 praying over your protection and success all season🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾love u!" Montana wrote.
Last season was Ball's second season-ending injury in a row. He missed the whole 2022–23 season due to an ankle injury sustained against the Detroit Pistons on February 27, 2023.
The Hornets star suffered several ankle injuries, keeping him either out for some time or ending his season. Going forward, LaMelo Ball needs to stay healthy or else his career may suffer the same fate as his brother.
