Zion Williamson returned to the New Orleans Pelicans lineup against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday after missing opening night with an illness.
Williamson, who was on a minutes restriction, had 16 points and 11 rebounds in 29 minutes.
“It won’t be full throttle, but we’ll see how he feels once he gets on the floor,” said Willie Green before the game.
The Pelicans won the game 105-103.
