NBA Champion, Ex-Pelicans Player Slams Zion Williamson

New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson has had a very rough time when it comes to injury. The Pelicans had high hopes for the 2024-25 NBA season, but all of that came to an abrupt end when Zion was sidelined indefinitely with a hamstring injury. Through five seasons, Zion has only played 190 games but has missed 211 games for the Pelicans. It's gotten to a point where former NBA champion Kendrick Perkins believes that Zion deserves a disrespectful nickname, similar to what Anthony Davis experienced.
