The New Orleans Pelicans will not have Zion Williamson for the Play-In Tournament, and if they advance, possibly in the playoffs.
Pelicans Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin announced the following update on forward Zion Williamson:
“After further evaluation, it has been determined that Zion Williamson will continue his rehabilitation and conditioning regimen. We will continue to monitor his progression, and updates will be provided as warranted.”
Williamson, 22, has missed the last 43 games after he suffered a right hamstring strain on January 2 in Philadelphia against the 76ers.
In 29 games, he holds season averages of 26.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per contest.
Currently, the Pelicans(41-39) are the eighth seed in the Western Conference.
