Zion Williamson was never cleared by the New Orleans Pelicans to play 5-on-5 or even full court 3-on-3 before they were eliminated from the playoffs in the Play-In.
Williamson suggested this week that he was mentally not ready to play after suffering a setback with his hamstring injury.
Williamson has played in fewer than 30 games in three of his four NBA season, missing the entire 21-22 campaign.
