The Pelicans are on a road trip. What our source tells us is that once they get back to New Orleans, Zion Williamson will be playing basketball again. He will be activated for the playoffs, and should play again this season, possibly as early as next week.
Already quite enthusiastic about the recent form of their proteges, New Orleans fans are likely to exult a little more by learning such news.

The fact that he accompanies his partners on their road trip was already a very encouraging signal regarding his health.
Therefore, it could therefore be that the 21-year-old golgoth finds playing time at the very end of the regular season, and approaches the play-in tournament with an ounce of rhythm, in which he could play an important role.

Positive speeches follow one another about Zion Williamson, and even now announce its possible recovery next week. It’s definitely good to be a Pelicans fan these days!
