The Pelicans announced Tuesday that forward Zion Williamson has been cleared to participate in contact drills and will begin with one-on-one workouts before moving to full team workouts.
The 21-year-old underwent imaging on his fractured right foot on Nov. 11. His availability for full team workouts will be decided by more medical imaging set to take place on Nov. 24. On Oct. 26, Williamson began doing light running on the court.
There is still no timetable for when Williamson will return to the court.
Williamson, a 2021 NBA All-Star, dealt with injuries in his first seasons in the league.
