Pelicans rookie forward Zion Williamson has returned to "full weight bearing" exercises as he rehabs from knee surgery, according to ESPN's Andrew Lopez.
Williamson participated in the Pelicans' shootaround on Sunday, working on his jump shot with assistant Michael Ruffin. Despite Williamson's progress, no date has been set for his return, per executive vice president of basketball operations David Griffin.
Williamson had meniscus surgery in his right knee on Oct. 21. The Pelicans initially projected Williamson's absence would last six-to-eight weeks.
"We're really excited with where he's at," Griffin said on the Pelicans' TV broadcast on Tuesday.
