The New Orleans Pelicans have had their second straight down season, sitting at 13th in the Western Conference with a 19-43 record. While this season has been another disappointment for fans, the future looks extremely bright with Derik Queen, Jeremiah Fears, and Trey Murphy III at the helm. However, recent comments by Zion Williamson on ESPN suggest that a bright future may have a massive roadblock in its path.
If you aren't aware, Williamson just did a one-on-one sit-down interview with ESPN's Malika Andrews. The two talked about Williamson's injury history, how he's dealt with criticism online, and he even hinted at a return from his ankle injury on Tuesday against the Lakers.
