New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson is taking the next step in his rehab from a fractured foot. Williamson is returning to New Orleans from Portland to continue his rehab.

In addition, Williamson has been cleared to progress in basketball activities. At this point, there is still no timetable for the star forward to return to playing in games.

Williamson has missed the entire season, after the Pelicans revealed in late-September that he fractured his foot over the summer. There have been a few updates since then, but none have included a return-to-play timeline.
