Certain family members of Zion Williamson want to see him on another team, sources tell The Athletic. The New Orleans Pelicans have missed the playoffs in each of Williamson's first two seasons in the NBA and the team will have a third head coach three years.

Sources from around the league have "pointed to the Pelicans as a heap of dysfunction."

Williamson's family has expressed thinly veiled unhappiness with the Pelicans and there are questions whether those have become his own. Williamson's family members voiced displeasure with Stan Van Gundy, who they thought was too rigid and demanding as head coach. They also felt like the organization did not live up to the standard for a star like Williamson.

Will be interesting to see if Zion takes the qualifying offer and bounces after five years.

As a Pels fan, I don’t blame him. The organization is a complete shite show.

He'll take the supermax and then demand a trade. Just like every other NBA player on a shitty team

Ownership should sell and team needs to move to Seattle or Vegas
The New Orleans market will never support a contending nba team the way the system is set up
The clock was ticking the day they drafted Zion
He will bolt just like Paul and Davis did

Hiring Stan Van Gundy in the first place was so lol.

Griffin has proved to be nothing more than mediocre at best.

The Pels fleece the Lakers and completely luck into Zion and they’re STILL pure trash.

Amazing.

If you don’t play in L.A. or NY the media will do anything to get you there.

Yeah no shite. Every star diva in the NBA thinks they deserve to be traded to LA or New York and will sit out with hang nails until they get their way. NBA is the instagram of sports leagues.

NBA is all about tv ratings and ESPN and TNT want those players in those markets
It's why the same teams are on national tv all the time
They could cut half the teams because that's the league they want

New Orleans has drafted two 1st ballot HOF guys in the past 20 years, and haven't been able to atleast even make the WCF once.

I honestly don't have faith that our time with Zion will fare any better.

Oh my God why haven't the Pels competed for titles with Zion he's played a whole arse 90 games they should be killing teams.


Yall all need to chill. We just got rid of one of the major problems on this team. A boatload of picks to make splashes in FA, and that's before the lottery. BI will be better next year, same with Z.

I've got to be right at some point goddammit hahahhaha

Such a load of bullshite. The second that the pels won the lottery, the talking heads were going on and on about what a shame it is that Zion wont be drafted to a big market team.
