Zion Williamson Sidelined Indefinitely With Fractured Finger

The Pelicans announced Friday that Zion Williamson will be out indefinitely after a CT scan revealed a fractured left ring finger.

A treatment plan and timetable for his return to play will be determined at a later date after further evaluation, the team said in a statement.

David Griffin, executive vice president of basketball operations for New Orleans, said on Friday that part of the reason why the forward is injured is because of how he's being officiated by NBA officials this season. He claimed that other teams have been able to have "open season" on Williamson.
