Zion Williamson 21-22 Thread - Road to Fitness

[TroubleS0me]

Zion Williamson is not expected to return to play this season, sources tell Shams Charania of The Athletic. Williamson, however, is making progress toward on-court work. Williamson has been spotted doing stationary shooting and is able to bear weight on his surgically repaired foot.

The New Orleans Pelicans have 11 regular season games remaining, which would not likely leave enough time for him to ramp-up from one-on-zero to five-on-five scrimmaging.

Williamson returned to New Orleans two weeks ago after rehabbing his fractured foot injury in Portland.

Williamson has attended home games and has appeared to be in positive spirits.

Williamson is eligible for a contract extension this offseason.

most guys who have been injured for most or all of the season at this point seem to be calling it good. lillard, warren, simmons, etc. makes sense to have him sit and see if he can be ready and in shape for next year. but honestly the worst part of this nba season was not being able to watch Zion. really hope that dude can come back strong and figure out the weight issues.
