Zion Williamson Fantasy Stats

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson is likely to remain part of the team's core in 2026-27. On Tuesday, Pelicans executive Joe Dumars announced that the team is not interested in trading the 2019 first-overall pick. "I'll get those calls," Dumars said. "And even when you say 'no' to people, like, 'No, we're not moving Zion,' within two hours it's out that you've had conversations about trading Zion. Listen, we have no intentions of doing that. We're going into the offseason looking forward to Zion coming back next year and playing great again next year." Williamson endured another injury-plagued season in 2025-26, making 62 appearances. He averaged 21.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.0 steals. The two-time All-Star has two seasons remaining on a five-year,$193 million contract.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (knee) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Pelicans are out of playoff contention, so it's not shocking to see them holding out Williamson. This is the final game of the regular-season, so that's a wrap on his 2025-2026 season. Williamson finished the season averaging 21.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 3.2 assists across 29.7 minutes in 62 games. Derik Queen should play heavy minutes with a majority of the Pelicans players absent for this game. Kevon Looney will back him up, but Quenn is the better DFS play between the two.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (knee) is listed as out for Friday's meeting with the Boston Celtics. The Pelicans are giving their fringe players a chance to impress late in the season, and they didn't play Williamson on Tuesday against Utah, even though he was in the lineup. Now, he will be inactive altogether, along with Yves Missi (hand). That should secure a significant role for Kevon Looney, who tallied seven points, 12 boards, six assists, and two steals in Tuesday's 156-137 win. Derik Queen will also have a clearer path to playing time in the frontcourt. He racked up 17 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists, three steals, and two blocks against Utah.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (ankle) will suit up on Thursday night against the Sacramento Kings. Williamson played through an ankle injury on Tuesday against the Lakers and has been cleared for Thursday's game despite being listed as questionable on the initial injury report. While Williamson isn't at 100 percent, he managed 24 points, four rebounds, and one steal in 33 minutes against the Lakers. On Thursday, Williamson has an easier matchup and may also have more of the ball with Dejounte Murray (Achilles) out of the lineup.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (ankle) is listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Thursday's meeting with the Sacramento Kings. After missing one game due to an ankle sprain, the former No. 1 pick was back in action on Tuesday against the Lakers, but Williamson could land back on the shelf for Thursday night. New Orleans will play two games in as many nights, so the team has some decisions to make. If Williamson sits out Thursday's game, DeAndre Jordan may return to the starting lineup; however, his minutes are not expected to increase significantly. Instead, Derik Queen benefited the most from Williamson's absence on Sunday against the Clippers, delivering an impressive 19 points, five rebounds, two assists, two steals, and one block in 29 minutes off the bench.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (ankle) will be in action against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night. It was initially unclear whether Williamson would play after the team listed him as questionable on the injury report. The former No. 1 pick sprained his right ankle in Saturday's win over Utah and missed Sunday's matchup with the Clippers. Before he was hurt, Williamson enjoyed an outstanding five-game stretch in which he averaged 24.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.8 blocks.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus the Clippers. The 25-year-old hasn't missed a game since mid-December. Unfortunately, he injured his ankle during Saturday's win over the Utah Jazz. His next opportunity to get on the floor will be on Tuesday versus the Lakers. Fortunately, Trey Murphy III (shoulder) will return from his five-game absence, which will help lessen the blow caused by Williamson's absence.

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (ankle) will not return to Saturday's game against Utah after exiting in the second quarter. He finished with four points, two assists, and one rebound in 11 minutes before being shut down. If he misses time, New Orleans could lean more heavily on Karlo Matkovic and Derik Queen. Matkovic delivered eight points, six rebounds, five assists, and two blocks in 25 minutes, profiling mainly as a blocks streamer. Queen added seven points, nine rebounds, and three assists in 19 minutes and offers the more intriguing upside in deeper formats if the role expands.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson will rejoin the starting lineup for Monday's tilt against the New York Knicks. Since returning from a hamstring injury, he has made seven consecutive appearances off the bench. His move back to the first unit indicates that Williamson is now ready for his usual workload. As a starter, the explosive forward has averaged 22.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.6 steals in 30.9 minutes this season. Bryce McGowens will give up his spot in the first unit to Williamson and is listed as inactive on Monday.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson will play against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Zion rarely suits up for a complete back-to-back set. However, he is set to suit up Tuesday after posting 24 points, nine rebounds, and three assists across 25 minutes in a 119-113 loss to the Mavericks on Monday. Ahead of this evening's contest, the 25-year-old star forward has seen action in four consecutive contests after missing six games due to an adductor injury. He will likely continue to come off the bench and have his minutes restricted despite Herbert Jones (ankle) sidelined for tonight's tilt.
