Pelicans' Zion Williamson Receives Biologic Injection, Future Updates to Come in at Least Four Weeks

Pelicans forward Zion Williamson received a biologic injection into the fracture site to stimulate bone healing in his right foot, the team announced Thursday.

Williamson, who is yet to play this season, will be limited to low impact, partial weight-bearing activities for an extended period, the team said.

New Orleans added that a further update can be anticipated to occur in at least four weeks.

Last weekend, the team announced Williamson underwent an MRI that showed a regression in the bone healing of his fifth metatarsal. The Athletic reported that Williamson could potentially be shut down from basketball activities as the Pelicans star continues to experience soreness.
