Zion Williamson is facing a make-or-break season for the New Orleans Pelicans in 2024-25.
drafted Zion Williams with the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, it was expected that he would become the next big superstar in the league. While he has shown flashes of being that player, the results haven't been even close to consistent.In his four NBA seasons, the 24-year-old forward has only played in 184 of the possible 328 games. All the Pelicans can do is hope that Williamson can get his health figured out.
Looking at last season, Williamson played in 70 games. That was a positive sign, as the number was the most he has ever reached. However, he did suffer an injury during the team's play-in game against the Los Angeles Lakers and was unable to return for the rest of the year.New Orleans won't necessarily move on from him if he struggles again this year. They've locked themselves in to a massive five-year deal worth more than $197 million.
There is also a chance that the Pelicans could start looking to trade Williamson. While they would love to see him reach his full potential and stay on the court, they can't wait forever.
