Zion Williamson writhes on the ground in pain after falling hard while attempting a dunk. It was 0: 43.
According to Willie Green, Zion, Brandon, and Herb are all questionable for the game against the Dallas Mavericks.
They did not finish Sunday's 122- 121 overtime loss to the Utah Jazz due to injuries. Jones hurt his knee late in the game, but stayed in the game until he got sick.
Green said Monday that he was thankful that there were no serious injuries.
It doesn't seem like Z's fall is going to be that bad. It's sore. There are bones. Brandon was struck in the face. Green said thatHerb's knee. We have to keep an eye on it over the next few days.
Green said that the forward was not in the concussion protocol as the team monitored his status. Green said that everything was fine after Jones had an x-ray on his knee.
Green said they would see how they felt once they went through shootaround.
With 8:07 left in the fourth quarter, Zion took a hard fall when his dunk attempt was blocked. He thought he had a slam after blocking the shot on the other side. He landed on his backside after getting his hand on the ball.
He initially tried to stay in the game but was taken out of the game one possession later. Green said that he couldn't return because of the injury.
In the first quarter, Naji Marshall tried to steal a pass as he was hit by his teammate. The Pelicans called a timeout after Marshall's hand made contact with Ingram, because they wanted to make sure he didn't stay in the game.
After being evaluated by the team trainer, he seemed to be fine and told some teammates on the bench that he was. After checking back in at the 6:33 mark of the second quarter, he went to the bench to check out. Instead of going to the sideline, he went to the locker room.
The Phoenix Suns, LA Clippers and Los Angeles Lakers are on the road for the next three games.
