The New Orleans Pelicans did not start the season in the best way as they remain out of playoff range so far and have lost 10 of their last 13 games.
Zion Williamson talked on his team’s slow start and which he thinks has been the biggest issue for the Pelicans so far in the 2020/21 campaign.
(via nola.com):
“I think everybody just has to trust,” Williamson said Wednesday. “When everybody is trusting the process, it makes things a little bit easier. But if most people are trusting and some aren’t, or if you trust it but not fully, that can mess some things up. I think it’s a matter of everybody believing that we’re going to go in the right direction.”
New Orleans is sitting at second-to-last place in the Western Conference with trading rumors surrounding several players, like JJ Redick and Lonzo Ball.
Williamson, who spent most of his first season under minutes restriction, is completely healthy so far this season, averaging 23.5 points on 58 percent shooting.
He also gets 7.6 rebounds and dishes 2.3 assists per game.
