Zion won’t play until after the All-Star break. That leaves 23 games of runway for the starting 5 we saw opening night before the postseason. nola.com/sports/pelican…6:18 PM
Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner
Mashburn, Baron, Peja, CP, West (not 25 games but season ending), Chandler, Holiday, Davis, Ingram, Zion. – 4:02 PM

Zion Williamson will reportedly miss the All-Star Game.
Who should replace him: AD, Book or Ant? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/43JQl8dTyq3:15 PM

So, no Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant or Zion Williamson for the All-Star Game.
Who will the three injury replacements be? Starting to feel like Adam Silver may wait for the trade deadline dust to settle before naming the replacements. – 2:59 PM

I think you can take Willie Green’s comments the past two days at face value: I don’t think we see Zion play until after the All-Star break. Pelicans have three games before then: Cleveland on Friday; OKC on Monday; Lakers on Wednesday. – 2:52 PM

Willie Green on the possibility of seeing the opening night starting 5 of CJ/Herb/Ingram/Zion/JV before the ASB: “No, not before All-Star break. We’re not going to see our starting five — the starting five we started the season with. No.” – 2:38 PM
