New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson may make his return to the court this week after a two-month recovery from a hamstring injury, according to head coach Willie Green. Williamson participated in 5-on-5 practice, indicating progress in his rehabilitation. The Pelicans' upcoming schedule includes matches against the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Portland Trail Blazers at home, followed by away games against the Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics.
Throughout the season, Williamson has shown exceptional talent, averaging 22.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 5.3 assists in just six games. However, injuries have plagued his career, limiting his appearances in previous seasons. The team remains hopeful for his return as they continue to struggle with injuries to several key players, including Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum.
