The New Orleans Pelicans and star
forward Zion Williamson have reportedly become “distant” while
he’s away from the team to rehab his foot injury.

ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported Tuesday
on SportsCenter (via TalkBasket) the Pelicans have reached a point
where they “just don’t know what to say” about the 2019 No. 1 pick.

“They’re distant, both literally and
figuratively,” Windhorst said. “He left the team in early January
to go deal with this injury on his own, and he’s just not been around
for months.”
