Zion Williamson has been ruled out for the New Orleans Pelican’s play-in game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night, and some comments the former No. 1 overall pick made this week raised serious questions about where he is at in his recovery.
Williamson has been out since he suffered a right hamstring injury in early January. The Pelicans announced on March 22 that he was cleared to return to on-court activities and would be reevaluated in two weeks, which was last week.
When asked on Tuesday about his recovery, Williamson said he can “pretty much do everything” but does not want to be thinking about his injury when he takes the court.
