Williamson, who missed the Pelicans' third game of the season with a left foot bone contusion , is now back on the injury report with yet another hamstring injury.
Since being drafted first overall in 2019 by the Pelicans, Williamson's health has been a major concern, and he has battled a variety of hamstring injuries . Most recently, Zion missed many games because of a left hamstring strain. He only played in 30 games during the 2024-25 season because of injuries.
Before the Pelicans announced this new hamstring strain on Tuesday, Williamson was listed as questionable to play on Tuesday night again
