Joe Dumars is expected to have some “very candid conversations” with Zion Williamson this offseason as he assumes control of the New Orleans Pelicans.
Williamson averaged 24.6 points, 7.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists in 28.6 minutes across just 30 games with the Pelicans in 24-25.
“They’re going to have to have a sitdown eventually,” said Shams Charania on NBA Today.
Williamson received a one-game suspension this season after being late for a team flight. Dumars is expected to hold Williamson to a high standard of professionalism.
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst previously reported that Williamson would receive “significant interest” if placed on the trade market.
