Report: Zion Williamson to Miss Rest of Summer League With Bruised Knee

Pelicans big man Zion Williamson will miss the rest of the Summer League season with a bruised left knee, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic.

Williamson exited Friday night's game against the Knicks after he suffered a knee-to-knee hit in the first half of the game. He was 4-for-9 from the floor on the night with 11 points and three rebounds before exiting the contest.

Williamson, a 6'7'', 285-pound freshman phenom at Duke, stole headlines throughout last season. He averaged 22.6 points, 8.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists on 68% shooting during his lone year with the Blue Devils.
