Zion Williamson Absent In Minnesota
6 months agoNew Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (personal) is out for Wednesday's against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to personal reasons. With CJ McCollum (lung) also sidelined and Herbert Jones (fibula) iffy to play, New Orleans could be awfully short-handed on Wednesday. Williamson will be unavailable for the second time this season, and the Pelicans hope the 23-year-old two-time All-Star is able to return to the team on Friday against the Houston Rockets. The sharpshooting Matt Ryan jumped into head coach Willie Green's starting lineup with Williamson out last Thursday, netting 20 points and six three-pointers in 35 minutes. Brandon Ingram should be in for some heavy usage against the Wolves.
