What exactly is Zion’s problems with the Pelicans?

[FultzNationRISE]

I find it very disappointing he’s reportedly quit on the organization for seemingly no good reason.

Im quite sure it’s not a market size thing, he and his family seemed excited to be going to N.O. back on draft night.

The organization hasnt rushed him back (to my knowledge) from any of his numerous injuries.

Theyve put a roster together that can be pretty damn dangerous if HE could get on the court.

What exactly is his problem? Why is he trying to force his way out?

Does anyone have credible info on this?? He seems like a nice kid in general and hes an unbelievable talent. What is with all the drama??

It seems unhappiness with the organization dates back a few years. Zion's family wanted him out of N.O. in '21. The SVG hiring was a minor disaster. Not sure whether there's carryover there.

He’s trying to force his way out? Did I miss something? Admittedly I’ve been distracted the last day.

I think it is a Zion problem or problems, not necessarily a problem he has with the organization. To me it just looks like he needs to get his act together.

It's the Pelicans. Any Pels fans on this site? What would realistically land Zion in New York? Randle and a pick or Randle and another shooter, or just Randle by himself?

"There is no relationship between Zion and the organization," ESPN's Brian Windhorst said on his Hoop Collective podcast (h/t RealGM). "And minimal relationship between Zion and his teammates, from what I understand."

This would more or less suggest he wants out, no?

We haven't heard Zion's side of the story...but the fact that you can't make it work with a 22 year old 2 time All-star speaks more toward the organization over the player.

I feel like we're now at a tipping point where the League needs to step in and maybe cap teams from collecting these #1 picks.

Doing the same thing LeBron's Agency did for Anthony Davis with them ... in order to get LeBeta MOAR HALP

The knicks suck balls. No way they are contending for a championship as long as you're still alive.

I'll be alive a lot longer than you, so when I see your monkey ass in heaven, I'll hand you a championship shirt. But I doubt it'll fit cause you'll still be a fat obese little chinaman in the afterlife.
