In September, 21-year-old Williamson underwent foot surgery, and his return to the ranks was scheduled for mid-December, but that won’t happen.
Viewer Jake Madison writes on Twitter that the talented basketball player missed rehabilitation classes several times and fell asleep during the team’s theoretical lessons last week.
He has also stopped training because healing of the fifth metacarpal is difficult.
Williams recently attended his team’s game against the Houston Rockets. He attracted the attention of many fans because he did not look in good shape. ESPN journalist Tim McMahon said the player currently weighs about 150 kg.
Williamson played 61 games last season, averaging 27.0 points per game, collecting 7.2 balls under the baskets and making 3.7 assists.
In 2019, the Pelicans were ranked No. 1 in the NBA Draft.
