Zion Williamson's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (finger) is questionable for Sunday's game in Phoenix. He has a left finger contusion, which kept him off the floor for Friday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs. But the Pelicans are trailing the Suns to climb out of the Play-In picture, meaning Williamson should be out there. Of course, the team could play it safe by keeping him off the floor. If that's the case, Dyson Daniels, who had seven points, seven rebounds, and two steals in 37 minutes on Friday, could remain in the starting lineup.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (finger) won't play on Friday against San Antonio. The Pelicans are facing the Spurs, one of the worst teams in the NBA, so Williamson may just be getting a night off ahead of Sunday's clash with the Suns. But now that he's ruled out, Larry Nance Jr. should be a popular DFS value option. At the same time, CJ McCollum, Trey Murphy III, and Herbert Jones could also see an uptick on the offensive end.

New Orleans Pelicans power forward Zion Williamson (finger) is questionable for Friday's game with the San Antonio Spurs. Williamson sustained a left-finger contusion in Wednesday's loss to the visiting Orlando Magic. He had X-rays that returned negative, but the 24-year-old may still not suit up. If Williamson is a no-go, small forward Naji Marshall, power forward Larry Nance Jr., and forward Jeremiah Robinson-Earl could see an uptick in minutes on the court.

New Orleans Pelicans head coach Willie Green says forward Zion Williamson's (finger) X-rays and scans came back clean. Williamson sustained a left finger contusion in Wednesday's loss to the visiting Orlando Magic and is now considered day-to-day. The 23-year-old slashing superstar will likely be listed as questionable when New Orleans submits their official injury report later on Thursday for Friday's tilt against the San Antonio Spurs. If Williamson needs to miss that one, it would open up a spot in the Pels' starting lineup likely for disruptive defenders Naji Marshall or Dyson Daniels. Trey Murphy III has been the biggest fantasy beneficiary of his prior absences, however, averaging 18.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.8 steals, and 4.0 three-pointers covering six games without Williamson this season.

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson injured the middle finger of his shooting hand in Wednesday's contest against Orlando. He was hurt in the final few minutes of the second quarter. Williamson was initially able to play through the injury but came out of the game with 7:24 left on the clock in the fourth frame. He logged only 29 minutes in total, posting 15 points, two rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one block. The Pelicans return to action on Friday versus San Antonio, and Williamson could miss his 12th game of the season. Naji Marshall and Larry Nance Jr. will have extra fantasy value if that's the case.
