Attorneys representing Zion Williamson’s former marketing manager has formally asked a federal judge in North Carolina to deny the New Orleans Pelicans star’s motion for partial judgment and allow them to conduct discovery into his parents’ living arrangements and financial history before and while he played at Duke.
The latest court documents filed by his former agent claim the life of luxury Williamson’s parents were living during the New Orleans Pelicans star’s lone season with the Blue Devils is proof of that.
Williamson is involved in a lawsuit with his former marketing agent, Gina Ford of Prime Sports Marketing.
Ford cited the fact that Williamson’s parents went from paying less than $900 a month in rent before Zion arrived at Duke to living in a $950,000 house that cost nearly $5,000 per month while he played for the Blue Devils.
Ford also pointed to the three luxury cars that were registered in Williamson’s parents’ name.

Williamson’s attorney didn’t sit back without responding back:
Williamson sued Ford and Prime Sports in June 2019 in an attempt to terminate his marketing agreement with her company. Later that month, Ford and Prime Sports Marketing sued Williamson, Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and two of its employees for $100 million in a Florida court, alleging that CAA interfered with Prime Sports’ deal with Williamson and that he breached their five-year contract.
