Williamson’s career injuries
The Pelicans star has had his fair share of upsets due to injury throughout his career. A bruised knee forced him to stay away from the rest of his summer league debut. His NBA debut was pushed because of an injury he picked up during a preseason game. The 22-year-old missed the first 4 months of the regular season due to this injury.
The Pelicans would want nothing more than to get their star player back on the court. As distant as it seems at the moment, it still is one of the few hopes for the New Orleans team.
