Breaking: Pelicans Lose Zion Williamson As Team Implodes

The New Orleans Pelicans have no luck at all this season. Zion Williamson is now out indefinitely with a hamstring injury which puts 80% of the Pels starting 5 on the shelf. In the brutal West, is it already time for them to start looking ahead to next season? And what silver lining can be found in the draft? Trevor Lane takes a look….

  9. might as well blow it up if you're the pels…its just not working…zion is never healthy…just sell high on zion when he's healthy and playing long enough to get value

  10. Trevor, great analysis. Here's a suggestion. When you're showing those tables of the players, their contracts and salaries, please move your thumbnail of you talking from the lower left corner to the lower right so we can see more of the player names. We'll still see you, but you'll only be covering up the salary numbers for 2028-29 or 2029-30. Thanks.

  27. Lost that weight but still CAN'T ESCAPE! SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN SHAPE, BUT TOO MUCH YOU ATE, IM AFRAID MY FRIEND, IT MAY BE TOO LATE, YOU'VE BEEN INJURED THE WHOLE TIME, AND THAT SEALS YOUR FATE☠⚰

  28. Unfortunately, no team will shell out future draft picks for BI. If there was one, it would have happened last off season already. He's oft injured and a good 3rd best player and not a max-type player he is seeking. Besides, are there any contending team that's below the tax apron that will be willing to trade good young players + picks for Ingram? There's none.

  30. Trade BI to Minnesota for Julius Randall. Trade J Hawkins to Portland for Robert Williams Center. We would be under cap and get more size. J Randall is on the final year of his contract. Portland has too many centers. These trades help all teams involve.

  35. I am Zion biggest fan but I am done this time. Can’t stay healthy, recover slower than everybody in the game, sit on the bench more than on the court , major disappointment.
