Pelicans’ Williamson cleared for full practice
UNDATED (AP) — Pelicans forward Zion Williamson has been cleared to participate in full team activities, but there remains no specific timetable on when the 2019 top overall draft choice out of Duke will play.
The upgrade in Williamson’s status came after he underwent imaging Wednesday on his right foot, which he fractured during an offseason workout. He participated in four-on-four, full-court work Friday.
