Zion Williamson’s time with the Pelicans has been marred by injury and shrouded in mystery, but the star power forward said Friday he intends to extend his stay in New Orleans if offered a new contract.
“Of course. I couldn’t sign it fast enough,” he said of a potential extension during his exit interview, per ESPN’s Andrew Lopez. Williamson, who is eligible for a maximum rookie contract extension this summer, missed the entire 2021–22 season due to a broken foot.
