What to be grateful for: A healthy Zion Williamson 

On paper, the New Orleans Pelicans are one of the most talented teams in the league. The problem is that too often, the Pelicans haven’t been healthy enough to see if that remains true when they play. Even though the Pelicans haven’t been completely healthy early on in the season, they have been healthy enough that we’ve seen their potential.

The Pelicans are an interesting team and the availability of Zion is something that completely changes this team’s outlook. And that’s what we’ve seen from this team so far this season. Zion has been relatively healthy and is a force once again.

New Orleans has the ability to beat anyone on any given night. If they can keep building on that throughout the year, there’s no question that this team is going to be one of those squads that no one is going to want to see in the playoffs.
