Zion Williamson

PF, New Orleans Pelicans

Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry recently shared that Zion Williamson went through 5-on-0 drills but not any 5-on-5 work on Tuesday, adding that medical staff will determine if he can play on Thursday vs. the Jazz.

The Pelicans will take a cautious approach when it comes to Zion and that's understandable. If he's unable to make his restart debut on Thursday, Nicolo Melli will be the most likely candidate to start in his place.
