![]() The injury-plagued Williamson has not played since leaving a game in Philadelphia on Jan. The Pelicans are scheduled to practice on Saturday before their regular-season finale at Minnesota on Sunday. The latest provided no such timeline or detail. Previous updates provided by the Pelicans said Williamson would continue his rehabilitation for multiple weeks before a re-evaluation of his injury. New Orleans (41-39) still could finish in the top six and go straight to the playoffs if it wins its last two games and receives help in the form of losses by Golden State (42-38) or the Los Angeles Clippers (42-38).

"We will continue to monitor his progression and updates will be provided as warranted.” “After further evaluation, it has been determined that Zion Williamson will continue his rehabilitation and conditioning regimen," Pelicans executive vice president of basketball operations David Griffin said in a statement Thursday evening. ![]() NEW ORLEANS (AP) - The Pelicans have ruled out Zion Williamson for Friday night’s game against the New York Knicks but have stopped short of providing a timeline for how much longer the All-Star forward will be sidelined by his right hamstring injury. ![]()
