Zion Williamson to miss remainder of Summer League with bruised knee

On his 19th birthday, the New Orleans Pelicans announced that Zion Williamson will not see the floor for the rest of the Las Vegas Summer League due to a bruised left knee.

The highly anticipated debut of the No. 1 overall pick last night took place in the Thomas and Mack Center and was cut short due to a couple of reasons.

First, was the reason that Williamson will not be playing anymore in Summer League after the broadcast said he sustained knee-to-knee contact with another player and would not return to the second half.
