DENVER -- If it were up to Zion Williamson, he would have already made his NBA debut for the New Orleans Pelicans.
That's what the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft told ESPN's Jorge Sedano prior to the Pelicans' Christmas night game against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday.
Williamson told Sedano that he "trusts the organization" in their decision making and also shared that his rehab process has been about more than just the recovery from surgery to repair the torn meniscus in his right knee.
The 19-year-old also said the Pelicans are trying to re-teach him how to walk and run differently - working on the kinetic chain of his body.
