Zion Williamson

PF, New Orleans Pelicans

Zion Williamson (rest) will not play against the Wizards on Friday.

Williamson is being treated with kid gloves by the Pelicans front office which is why we won't be watching the phenom play in the second half of the team's back-to-back. Kenrich Williams and Josh Hart are the likely candidates to see more playing time while Brandon Ingram could see an uptick in usage. Zion should be ready for the team's next game against the Spurs on Sunday.
