How did my beloved Zion get hurt again?

The Pelicans officially announced,Zion will miss the home game vs. the Celtics due to a bone bruise on his left foot... Pelicans head coach Will Green said: Zion suddenly experienced some discomfort; it looks not too severe but we can't be sure yet.

It seems that despite Zion’s intense weight loss efforts during the offseason, his fragile physical condition remains a major obstacle preventing him from fully realizing his potential. So far this season, he has played only two games, averaging 35 minutes, 27 points, 9.5 rebounds (5 offensive boards), 6 assists, 3.5 turnovers, and 4 steals, with shooting percentages of 46.2%, 0%, and 64.3% in three categories.

No one has ever doubted Zion’s talent, but his fragility is undeniable. Since his debut in 2019, over seven seasons, he has only played 216 regular-season games total, averaging just about 31 games per season, and shockingly, he has yet to play a single playoff game.

Speaking of this season, explosive performances have been frequent, but the injury wave has arrived earlier than ever.
Before Zion’s injury, Doncic was already sidelined, expected to miss at least a week due to a finger sprain and calf bruise.
This new Lakers star is currently averaging an incredible 46 points, 11.5 rebounds, 8.5 assists, and 1 steal per game, with shooting percentages of 62%, 31.8%, and 79.3%.

Timberwolves’ star Edwards is dealing with a more serious injury, sidelined for two weeks due to a right hamstring strain— so far this season, he has averaged 25.7 minutes, 25.7 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists per game, with shooting percentages of 51.9%, 47.4%, and 82.4%.

By the way, according to insider Shams,the NBA has officially notified all 30 teams that a comprehensive review of player injury reports and betting monitoring mechanisms has been launched to detect any suspicious gambling activities.

The shocking scandal involving former Trail Blazers coach Billups and former Heat guard Rozier has thoroughly shaken the NBA. Now the league is determined to take strong measures to restore a clean and pure competitive environment.
