Zion Williamson NOT expected to return for postseason

After reports came out that Williamson was most likely not returning for the first round of the postseason, if New Orleans got out of the play-in, Zion has answered to the media.

Zion Williamson has confirmed that even if the Pelicans make it to the first round of the postseason, he probably won’t be playing. Also, he says he will return “when I feel like Zion again.”

Williamson even admits that he is feeling good, but does not want to return yet. This comes after the Pelicans cleared him to return.

“When I go to make certain moves, there is that hesitation,” said Williamson. “Sometimes there’s not and sometimes there is. And I understand the magnitude of these games coming up and I don’t want to be out there hesitating or doing something that may affect my team in a bad way.”

The Pelicans take on the Oklahoma City Thunder Wednesday to determine who will be facing the Timberwolves Friday.

According to multiple reports, spearheaded by ESPN’s Shams Charania, Malik Beasley is no longer under federal investigation for his alleged gambling activities.

Beasley was being investigated for his involvement in prop bets and gambling on NBA games during the 2023-24 season.

With him no longer being under federal investigation, he can now rejoin the free agency pool and teams can now be assured he will be playing this upcoming regular season.

The New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons are two teams who have the most interest, and connections, to the 28-year-old.

According to Jake Fischer, the 23-year-old is currently deciding between two options for the Brooklyn Nets and beyond: sign the qualifying offer this season or sign a two-year deal with Brooklyn.

If Cam Thomas were to sign the qualifying offer, it would guarantee him the reality of being an unrestricted free agent in 2026’s offseason. This is something that has held him down this offseason.

If he were to accept the Nets two-year contract offer, Thomas would only be making $28 million in total and the second year is a team option. The young guard has expressed his desires of earning top-tier money for his statistical production and what he believes he can offer to an organization.

This offseason has shown two things for Thomas: being a restricted free agent has been a nightmare to leave and earn more, and the lack of cap space from interested teams to leave Brooklyn. Thomas has reportedly become intrigued in leaving the Nets to go somewhere else.

Last season, he averaged 24.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game.

According to Jake Fischer, the Golden State Warriors and former Boston Celtics player Al Horford are close on a contract agreement. However, the Jonathan Kuminga situation is stalling those talks as he wants them to resolve that issue first.

Once the Kuminga issue is dealt with, Horford is expected to sign a two-year, over $11 million deal with the Warriors. He would use the full taxpayer midlevel exception for this upcoming season, which would land him $5.685 million for 2025-26.

The second season would be a player option, as the Warriors are hoping this type of contract is to his liking. Golden State highly values his ability to stretch the floor and being able to switch on defense, especially around the center position.
