There’s been a rare Zion Williamson sighting.
The New Orleans Pelicans superstar has yet to play a single game this season, as he was briefly cleared to participate in full practices last week, but then got pushed back due to soreness in his surgically repaired right foot.
Now, fans will have to continue to wait for him to get healthy enough to make it back on the court. In the meantime, Hustle Belt’s Steve Helwick took a picture of Zion from the stands during a recent game, and once that photo made it online, social media went nuts with his size.

The young star had a surgery to fix a broken foot in the summer, but the return date kept getting pushed back.
Despite the 21-year old forward’s absence, the Pelicans had been playing better of late, winning four of their last six games. However, the team fell to the Houston Rockets 118-108.
During the 2020-21 season, Williamson averaged 27.0 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game.
