Although Zion Williamson practiced today, he will be listed as out for tomorrow’s game against the Grizzlies in Memphis, per the Pelicans. Dejounte Murray (right elbow bursitis) and center Yves Missi (Non-COVID illness), who also practiced today, will be probable.




Also will guillory said ingram hasn't been cleared for contact drills yet because frick you

This is how you tank without letting everyone know you’re tanking

Bad news on Ingram though, if he’s not practicing yet nobody will trade for him before the deadline

I think he'll be alright pending the trading team just comes check him out or requests x-rays/mri's to make sure there was nothing more to it than just a routine bad ankle sprain. I woudl think we don't want to play him again b/c we dont' want to risk him reinjuring it, or knowing BI, injuring something else. The team that trades for him should be getting back an almost 100% BI.


We can easily win the games against charlotte and Toronto without Zion, so he might as well play in those games and miss the Grizzlies game where don't have a good shot at winning without him.

Yeah we’re gonna get crushed by Memphis with it without Zion, we need to sit him against Charlotte if we’re trying to tank.

Griff fricking up this perfect opportunity to tank this season should be an automatic firing.

Chasing the 10 seed that’s already out of reach will set this franchise back

Are they serious with this? I just looked it up. He's out for "return to competition reconditioning". WTF does that mean? Who decides this?

How can they keep doing this? It's beyond embarrassing now and doesn't make any sense. He just played and he's not in condition anymore. Who is still cheering for this guy at this point?

He needs to be gone now. This is priority number one. Get him out the door.

It’s a back to back, the team is not going to play him on back to backs this year, get used to it.

For everyone complaining this is how you stealth tank. We will beat Charlotte whether Zion plays or not, however Zion gives you a great chance to beat Memphis. Sit him on the game he will make the most difference between a loss and a win on, and play him in the game you would win regardless

And still end up with a middling draft pick and "star" you can't trust as far as you can throw him.

So......... Instead of seeing how the almost fully healthy team looks vs a good team, the evaluation is better set to watch them at near full strength vs a bad team that's missing one of the 2 best players?

It makes absolutely no sense and as always, this franchise as a whole is just absolutely idiotic and a waste of a franchise.

So.......... You think the better thing to do for evaluation of the future of fans and the team, is to sit Zion in games vs the good teams? Right?

Make it make sense fam...

Zion and Ja has played each other 2 times out of 18 games lmao.

This dumbass franchise thinks it's great for fans to sit Zion vs his draft rival.

Great fricking idea. Great way to sell more tickets and keep fans happy.

Please just trade the man so nobody has to deal with this shite anymore.

Like I said further up, “fans” like yall will complain no matter what, Zion plays and we win you will complain that they’re not tanking in a lost season, they sit Zion in the game we are more likely to win with him and you say this shite.

No matter what the franchise does they cannot make people like you happy, ever.
