New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson, who departed the NBA campus in Orlando last week to attend to an urgent family matter, has been getting tested daily for COVID-19 while away from the team and continues to produce negative results (reminder: this a good thing. You want “negative” results when being health-tested for a bad thing.)
While there is no current timetable for his return to campus, he fully intends to rejoin the team.
Per NBA protocol, his quarantine period will be determined upon his return.
NBA scrimmages between different teams began today around the league.
Actual games that count in the standings begin next Thursday, July 30.
