Zion Williamson seems eager to make his NBA debut, but according to ESPN's Jorge Sedano, his rehab process from a preseason right knee surgery has entailed more than just the standard recovery procedure.
Instead, Sedano is reporting that the team is "trying to re-teach him how to walk and run differently -- working on the kinetic chain of his body."
In recent weeks, Williamson has returned to on-court activities, but he's yet to play 3-on-3—let alone 5-on-5.
ESPN's Andrew Lopez notes that in the past week, Williamson has stayed back with a group of New Orleans coaches and staffers and worked for an hour to 90 minutes walking through plays and running up and down the court.
