Zion Williamson Linked With Exit From New Orleans
2 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson could reportedly be moved ahead of the 2023 NBA Draft. According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the Pelicans would consider trading Williamson if they can move up in the draft to select Scoot Henderson. "I heard this week from one well-placed observer who is convinced that the Pelicans would indeed consider dealing Williamson away if it meant they could draft Henderson, pointing to a rising level of exasperation within the organization regarding Williamson's ongoing availability issues and overall approach," noted Stein. The Pelicans own the 14th pick in the first round and will need to move into the top three to have a chance to select Henderson.
