Zion Williamson adopted a new offseason routine in hopes of putting an end to injury problems that have sidelined him for much of his first four NBA seasons. The Pelicans' star forward spent much of this summer in New Orleans working out under team supervision.
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson goes to the basket to slam dunk over Orlando Magic center Moritz Wagner in the first half of an NBA preseason basketball game in New Orleans, Tuesday, Oct. 10, 2023. Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham goes to the basket against Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant during the first half of a preseason NBA basketball game Sunday, Oct. 8, 2023, in Detroit.
His potential to be a dynamic, high-scoring force has been evident when he’s played. He’s averaged about 26 points and seven rebounds. He played 24 games as a rookie — mostly because of a preseason right knee injury — and missed all his third pro season because of a fractured right foot. Ball was among the more productive point guards in the league when he played last season, averaging 23.3 points and 8.4 assists per game. The Hornets averaged 6.8 more points per 100 possessions with Ball on the court.
“You saw glimpses of how good he is, and also forecast how good he can be, at the USA deal this summer,” first-year Pistons coach Monty Williams said.
