Zion Williamson hasn’t always spoken loud and clear about his commitment to the New Orleans Pelicans., but it seems his teammates’ latest trip to the playoffs has convinced him to try again. After a blank season due to a right foot injurywhich was done during the previous preseason and was not publicly communicated until Media Day of the league, the pivot was discharged to carry out activity without restrictions on the track on May 26, when his team had already been eliminated in the first round.
“I want to be here, that’s no secret”, affirmed the number one in the 2019 draft in statements collected by the ESPN at their summer campus. Over the next several months, the Pelicans must confirm their max-renewal offer to Zion, who could go on to win $186 million over the next five years. It’s possible that the franchise will protect itself with minimum clauses against the history of the fragile but undoubtedly talented player.
“It’s been a long year of rehabilitation and mental battles, but now I’m fine, ready to work,” the 21-year-old commented. These days, in addition to participating in his campus in New Orleans, Williamson is already training with some of his teammates for the next course. “See the Pels in the first round, that was all I needed to get fired up and come back here,” the young star confirmed.
