Zion Williamson’s Future in New Orleans: Trade Rumors Ignite Uncertainty and Speculation

Zion Williamson’s Future in New Orleans: Trade Rumors Ignite Uncertainty and Speculation

Williamson understands the skepticism. But, he said, “I feel like I’ve shown enough this year to be able to say, like, ‘This is what it’s gonna look like.’ Even when I did have an injury (he strained his hip in early December), I was projected to miss four to six weeks, and instead I was back in two and then went on a long stretch of consecutive games.”

That, he believes, was no accident. In the offseason, Williamson began working with a new trainer. “Before, I’d get treatment and do basic stuff like table time,” Williamson said. “But now it’s things like hyperbaric chambers and red light chambers.” His teammates say they notice a difference. “He’s taking the management of his body more seriously than ever before,” Trey Murphy said. What Borrego points to, though, is that not only has Williamson played the majority of games this season, but “we haven’t even had to have a single conversation where I have to go and ask him if he’s in. He’s fully bought in.”
