Are we nearing the end of the Zion Williamson era in New Orleans?
The league is "certainly wondering" if the New Orleans Pelicans are ultimately going to deal the 2019 No. 1 pick in an attempt to move up in Thursday's NBA draft (8 p.m. ET on ESPN/ABC), according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst.
Williamson has been a force for New Orleans, averaging 25.8 points and 7.0 rebounds while shooting 60.5% from the floor over his four seasons. The issue has been actually keeping him on the floor. Injuries have limited Williamson to just 114 out of a possible 308 regular-season games in his young career.
