With the New Orleans Pelicans bringing in Joe Dumars to run their basketball operations, rumors are swirling about significant roster changes — including the possibility of the franchise trading Zion Williamson.
On the latest episode of "The Kevin O’Connor Show," guest Esfandiar Baraheni and host Kevin O’Connor dive into the speculation.
They pointed to multiple reports suggesting the Pelicans will have “candid conversations” this offseason about Zion’s future. Zion, while supremely talented, has a contract filled with non-guaranteed money and games-played requirements due to his well-documented injury and weight concerns.
According to the pair, league-wide interest in Zion would be strong if New Orleans put him on the trade market.
