People were wondering what Zion Williamson would do once he got back into the league after being sidelined with a injury for the first 44 games of the season, Williamson have proving that he has over come that injury and is getting more comfortable in the NBA.

Last night the Trail Blazers lost to the Pelicans but it was by Zion’s huge night of 31 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal. That was a career setting night for Zion Williamson, but it doesn’t stop there.

He also got his name up in the record books:

Zion Williamson is the first rookie since Dikembe Mutombo in 1991-1992 to score at least 14 points in his first nine career games.

Zion Williamson is also the third player in NBA History to have seven 20-point games in his first ten games, he joins Shaq and Grant Hill.

This is what Zion said about his performance yesterday:

“I expect to make an impact but I don’t expect to do nothing like this,” Williamson said after the game. “I just kind of look to come in, just kind of fit in, just not try to mess up … but my teammates and coaches are always pushing me.”

Then here is what Carmelo Anthony said about Zion Williamson’s performance:

”I don’t really think he’s comparable to anyone that I have seen,” Portland forward Carmelo Anthony said of Williamson. ”Someone who is as powerful as that, who jumps like that … you can tell he’s getting better and getting a feel for the game.”

Nets player gets the Coronavirus while one opts out of the restart season!

The Nets are falling apart, without Jordan and Kyrie (Kyrie due to injuries) it has become a drag to the finish. Other Nets player caught the Coronavirus, his name is Spencer Dinwiddie.

Spencer Dinwiddie, the team’s starting guard, has announced that he got the virus a while back. Then, Nets forward Wilson Chandler informed the nets that he is skipping the restart season.

So, basically, with no KD, Kyrie, Dinwiddie, and Jordan the Nets are stranded on an island to that they can not get off. At this point, since the season hasn’t even started, this could be a blowout, no-pointer for the Nets as they could lose each game.

This is considering the fact that they got to play up against:

(1st game) The Magic
(2nd game) The Wizards
(3rd game) The Bucks
(4th game) The Celtics
(5th game) The Kings
(6th game) The Clippers
(7th game) The Magic
(8th game) The Trail-Blazers

To be honest, this is going to be a tough stretch. Hopefully, they can at least win a few, or at least keep it somewhat entertaining. At this rate the Nets are going, their team could be dismantled before the season even starts.

What do you guys think? Do you guys think they’ll at least win a few games? Sound off in the comments below!

Kevin Durant’s return to the NBA is unlikely!

The probability of Kevin Durant, Brooklyn Nets player, returning this summer is highly unlikely due to the fact that he has a ruptured Achilles. To confirm things his long time business partner Rich Kleiman has said it is very unlikely for him to return this summer and help push the Nets into a playoff push.

“Honestly, not very realistic from my standpoint, and not even spoken about,” Kleiman said.

When he was playing with the Warriors last season he tore his Achilles in the NBA Finals against the Raptors, the Nets general manager Sean Marks also confirmed saying he will be missing this season due to the injury.

Since the NBA is on-hold right now due to the coronavirus, or COVID-19, it is not expected to re-open until mid to late June. That is the best timeline for the NBA season currently.

Now what is interesting is the fact that Durant’s 12-month recovery would be June but his partner Kleiman wants to be conservative about his injury:

“It feels like (Durant playing in the 2019-20 season) clearly was not something that was in the cards prior to all this,” Kleiman said. “And now, I think just like the rest of the world, it’s hard to take anything more than day by day.

“I think that Kevin is going to figure out the space that he needs to be in to continue to rehab during this time. But even that is hard to answer at this point, with the new kind of rules that were put in place last night.”

The good news for Durant is that when he is healthy again, probably next season, he will be able to play with DeAndre Jordan and Kyrie Irving again. When he does return, along with Kyrie, they will be a force to reckon with on the court.

When the Lakers made it official of waiving Troy Daniels they knew they would be signing JR Smith or Dion Waiters, both players worked out for the Lakers but rumors were speculating that it would be Waiters getting signed.

Every conversation that Waiters, his agent, and the Lakers had were reported positive. Waiters have been signed for the remainder of the season.

Even though Waiters has been struggling throughout his career with injuries and suspensions he still has been putting up double-digit points each year.
