Zion Williamson, Jordan Hawkins Questionable for Game Against Portland Trail Blazers
New Orleans Pelicans Star Zion Williamson and Jordan Hawkins are listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers due to injuries.
Williamson is dealing with a right hamstring strain, while Hawkins is nursing a left ankle sprain. Both players were injured in Saturday's win over the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Williamson is averaging 26.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game this season. He is one of the most dynamic players in the NBA and is a key part of the Pelicans' success.
Hawkins is averaging 12.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game this season. He is a valuable member of the Pelicans' rotation and provides them with a scoring boost off the bench.
The Pelicans are 28-27 this season and are currently in eighth place in the Western Conference. They are fighting for a playoff spot and need Williamson and Hawkins to be healthy in order to make a run.
The Pelicans will face the Trail Blazers on Tuesday at the Smoothie King Center. The game is scheduled to tip off at 7:00 PM CST.
