Williamson (ankle) has been ruled out by the Pels against LA.
Unfortunately, Zion Williamson will not play on Sunday for the New Orleans Pelicans.
New Orleans Pelicans / Schedule
Ahead of their matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, the team announced that Williamson (right ankle injury) will be unavailable.
Williamson was marked as a game-time decision, but the Pelicans opted not to give him a green light for the second night of their back-to-back slate.
The star big man took a premature exit after he tweaked his ankle in the second quarter of the Pelicans' 115-105 Saturday win over the Utah Jazz.
As Williamson will not be playing, his 35-game consecutive appearance streak has been snapped. It served as the healthiest stretch of the Pelicans star throughout his career.
Derik Queen and Karlo Matkovic are set to gain more minutes in the wake of Williamson's inactivity against the Clips.
