The New Orleans Pelicans said Wednesday that Zion Williamson will miss at least two more weeks as he continues to rehab a left hamstring injury.
Williamson has been out since Nov. 6 because of the injury and overall has been limited to just six games for New Orleans this season, averaging 22.7 points, 8.0 rebounds and 5.3 assists.
Since the Pelicans selected Williamson first overall out of Duke in the 2019 draft, the 6-foot-6, 284-pound power forward has missed 211 out of a possible 401 regular-season games.
Also Wednesday, the Pelicans said Brandon Ingram (right plantaris tendinitis) and Herb Jones (right shoulder strain) were full participants in practice Wednesday and are questionable to face the Phoenix Suns on Thursday.
Jose Alvarado will be reevaluated in two weeks as he continues to rehab a left hamstring strain.
And Jordan Hawkins has what the team called a lumbar spine annular fissure and will be reevaluated in about one week.
