Pelicans' Zion Williamson: Healthy for camp

Pelicans vice president of basketball operations David Griffin said Monday that Williamson (hamstring) has been cleared for training camp, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

Williamson suffered his left hamstring injury during the Play-In Tournament and was unable to suit up against the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs. He's had several months to recover, however, and he should be able to hit the ground running in training camp. The 2019 No. 1 overall pick put up averages of 22.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.1 steals in 70 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.
