The New Orleans Pelicans are reportedly targeting a big move in the 2023 NBA Draft - and it means franchise star Zion Williamson could be traded.
The Pelicans are linked with a move up the draft order to capture exciting prospect Scoot Henderson, and the franchise could sever their ties with Williamson as a result. He entered the league amid plenty of hype after the Pelicans spent the 2019 first overall pick on the athletic forward.
Williamson arrived in the NBA in style, averaging 25.8 points per game en route to two All-Star Game nominations. When healthy, he showcases his incredible talent on a nightly basis but ultimately the 22-year-old has struggled to stay available.
