New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson has been diagnosed with a grade 2 right hip adductor strain and will miss extended time. The team announced the injury on Tuesday, with re-evaluation expected in three weeks. Williamson has already missed 12 of the Pelicans' 22 games this season.
Joe Dumars, Executive Vice President der New Orleans Pelicans, erklärte, dass das Team nicht die Absicht habe, Zion Williamson in dieser Offseason abzugeben. Williamson äußerte seinerseits den Wunsch, langfristig beim Team zu bleiben, und bezeichnete New Orleans als seine Heimat. Diese Kommentare kommen auf, während Fragen zur sportlichen Harmonie zwischen Williamson und dem jungen Forward Derik Queen nach einer enttäuschenden 26-56-Saison laut wurden.
