This is lacking a lot of context.

Willie Green said Zion did not practice today. Pelicans only have one more regular-season practice on the schedule — Saturday in Minnesota.


Was he not doing anything at all, or has he not progressed to full practices with the team?

Shams says hes been doing low intensity 3 on 3’s with the coaching staff.

This close to the playoffs teams don’t really do hard practices anyway

He could be getting scans today for all we know.

I would expect he won't be cleared for "practice" until his 2 week evaluation. There's a big difference between

Coach Green: “No he didn’t go through practice today.”

and Zion wasn't at practice doing what he's been cleared to do.

I honestly have no idea if zion is going to play again this regular season. Now that we almost surely have at least a play in spot locked up they could bring him back for the playins to give him more rest

He's not, it feels like they are doing the exact same thing they did to us last year

Last year there wasn't talk of "immediate return to play" when he was cleared.

If he doesn't play again this regular season, I will be pissed. It would be unbelievably misleading by this organization for the second year in a row. They have definitely floated the information that he will be back this year. A big part of the late season optimism, at least for me, has been that he will be back this week with a few ramp up games before play in/playoff games.

Apparently Shams said he’s been doing low intensity 3 on 3s but can’t officially go through team practice until he gets re-evaluated.


That’s guess work, though

This is very likely, he may not have even been there.

All of this x1000

He could have got scans yesterday and practiced today. Why would he go get scans on our last practice before Minny. That sounds nuts.

Will be utterly pissed and disappointed if we’ve been lead up the garden path with this and he doesn’t play in this important stretch

"Zion was re-evaluated today and can now take part in 5 on 5 team activities at a light pace. He will be re-evaluated the day before the Western Conference Finals"

At this point wouldnt it have been faster to get surgery? I mean maxi kleber tore his hamstring, got surgery and still got back before zion
