Zion’s Return Draws Closer

It looks like fans won’t have too much longer to wait for Zion Williamson’s return: the talented rookie and former Blue Devil, now with the New Orleans Pelicans, will take part in full contact drills and practice soon.

After 2-3 practices he’s expected to return to the court, most likely with Archie Miller’s favorite, load management.

That is to say he won’t play back-to-backs for a while.

He’s also doing some basic work on refining his body movements and his diet as well.

The NBA could use his presence - ratings have fallen off a good bit this season.
