The Pelicans have the second-worst record in the Western Conference at 18-48. New Orleans has dealt with multiple injuries all season to every member of its rotation, most notably from guard Dejounte Murray, who only played 31 games this season before he ruptured his right Achilles tendon, which ended his season on Jan. 31.

The New Orleans Pelicans are poised to make a leap next season if they bring everyone back — Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy III, Herb Jones, Dejounte Murray — and draft well. The first people to get a look at that team will be in Australia.

Following the Pelicans' win over the Clippers on Tuesday night, Zion Williamson explained what he wants from the team over the summer.

Zion Williamson had 22 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans snapped a four-game slide with a 127-120 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.

Zion Williamson is a superstar. He’s been in the league since the 2019-2020 season and has earned two NBA All-Star nods in his career. While Williamson has yet to make an All-NBA team, his focus has been on helping the New Orleans Pelicans find a way to compete when he’s on the court.
