New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson will miss multiple weeks with a hamstring strain.<\/p>\n

the Pelicans announced the injury<\/a> on Monday. He’ll be re-evaluated in three weeks.<\/p>\n

Williamson sustained the injury on Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers. He pulled up and grabbed his right leg after dribbling up the court. He left the game and did not return. An MRI on Tuesday confirmed the severity of the injury.<\/p>\n

The oft-injured Pelicans star had thus far remained relatively healthy this season in leading New Orleans to a 23-14 start that had them a game behind the first-place Denver Nuggets in the West entering Tuesday’s NBA slate. News of his injury is a difficult blow for the Pelicans and for Williamson, who has yet to play more than 61 games in a single NBA season.<\/p>\n

A torn meniscus limited Williamson to just 24 games during his rookie 2019-20 campaign. He missed the entirety of last season with a foot fracture and a difficult recovery that kept him sidelined longer than expected.<\/p>\n
