Zion Williamson Not Expected To Play During 2021-22 Year
3 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans power forward Zion Williamson (foot) is unlikely to suit up at any point during the current campaign, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. Williamson has missed all of this season as he works his way back from a broken right foot, with setbacks stunting his progress. When healthy, Williamson is a bonafide Top 25 fantasy asset, but it appears that both he and the organization will look to get him up to speed for the 2022-23 year. Jaxson Hayes figures to continue seeing increased usage at the four without Williamson, while the trio of C.J. McCollum, Brandon Ingram (hamstring), and Jonas Valanciunas lead the offense on a nightly basis.
