Former Pelicans guard JJ Redick criticized Zion Williamson on Tuesday for his “lack of investment” in the New Orleans organization.
During an appearance on ESPN’s First Take, Redick, who retired from the NBA last September, blasted Williamson for not reaching out to CJ McCollum after the Pelicans traded for the veteran shooting guard.
“[It] shows a complete lack of investment in your team, in the organization, in the city,” Redick said of Williamson. “I get that [Williamson’s] hurt and away from the team, but you just traded for one of the 50 best players in the league. A guy that’s supposed to be paired with you. Reach out and say hello.”
