At least one Pelicans player appears to have had about enough of the Zion Williamson slander. While there have been many positive things said about the 23-year-old forward in the media recently, one comment seemed to be a breaking point for fellow New Orleans forward Larry Nance.
Following a reported comment by FS1's Ric Bucher in which the analyst reported he has been told Zion has "shown no interest" in developing a floater, up-and-under layup, or pull-up jumper from the elbow, Nance stepped in and was quick to unload on this report.
I don’t understand the constant attempt to drag Z’s name.. I’m in the gym with this dude all season and he’s consistently putting in work on his touch, jumper, and skill shots.

These dudes need to stop putting out fake stories just for clicks. It’s pathetic https://t.co/Hp8RWxahxI
