Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson have appeared in 93 out of a possible 283 regular season games together and that figure isn’t going to increase anytime soon. That’s not only worrisome for present New Orleans Pelicans playoff aspirations, one can’t help but ponder the bigger picture.
Williamson, who originally suffered a hamstring strain against the 76ers on Jan. 2, had a setback in his recovery process last week. He re-aggravated the injury while doing work on the court and is expected to miss multiple weeks beyond the All-Star break. That’s a bitter pill to swallow because he was nearing a return after having progressed to 3-on-3 work.
