The Pelicans are in trouble right now as the loss to the Hornets, with 142 points conceded, is the fourth in a row and the Spurs are closing in the fight for tenth place in the West.
Nevertheless, there was some good news to take away from Friday for the Louisiana franchise. It’s the presence of Zion Williamson at the morning shootaround.
As expected, after two months of rehabilitation in Portland, the Pelicans All-Star was reunited with his teammates. And above all, which is reassuring for the fans, his silhouette is much sharper than that seen at the start of the season.
” It feels good “says Devonte’ Graham for nola. “It’s good for him. I know he missed being here, being surrounded by his family. He was warmly welcomed. We want him to be healthy, that’s all. “
We then saw Williamson on the bench, with his teammates, during the meeting against the Hornets. “It was good to see him today”confirms Willie Green. “It was good to see him work. He continues his rehabilitation. “
As there is one month left in the regular season, his return is still uncertain. Even if his presence alongside Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum is expected by everyone. “He’s such a player” confirms Graham. “I can’t wait to see him back on the court. “
