The Pelicans announced Wednesday that Williamson's strained right hamstring continues to heal, but he'll be re-evaluated in two weeks before the team decides his next steps.
New Orleans' most recent report on Williamson similarly indicated that he was making good progress, and though a recent MRI reportedly showed improved healing, the team is still unwilling to commit to a precise target date for the big man to resume playing. Even if Williamson is cleared to resume on-court activity following his upcoming two-week re-evaluation, he probably won't be fully ramped up until April, meaning that managers in redraft leagues that end relatively soon should feel comfortable with dropping him. Williamson last played Jan. 2 and has appeared in only 29 games this season.
