Zion Williamson’s Injury Return Reportedly Unlikely in ‘Foreseeable Future’

Zion Williamson isn’t coming back anytime soon.

Zion Williamson is reportedly not expected to return from a foot injury for the “foreseeable future.”

ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported the update Thursday on Get Up.

“A couple of weeks ago, the coaching staff and the players became aware not to expect Zion back for the foreseeable future,” Windhorst said.

This week Christian Clark of NOLA.com reported that a second surgery could be a possibility, although nothing had been decided at that time. Williamson’s initial surgery occurred over the offseason.
