Zion signs multiyear partnership with NBA 2K Williamson joins a list of elite, active NBA athletes with similar deals. LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, Stephen Curry and James Harden.
Every twist and turn in the Zion sneaker chase "Zion's incredible determination, character and play are inspiring," Michael Jordan said in a news release announcing the deal. "He's an essential part of the new talent that will help lead the brand into the future."
New Orleans Pelicans executive vice president David Griffin clarified comments he made about the challenges of building a title contender around LeBron James during their three seasons in Cleveland together, saying Friday that he maintains a "positive relationship" with James. On ESPN's The Jump on Friday, Griffin said he did a poor job of framing a conversation about dealing with the "noise" surrounding those Cavaliers teams

Now you may ask, "Now Charlemagne, what in God's name does THIS have to do with sports?" The answer? Not a Goddamn thing. It's just that this little tidbit of information is still infinitely more useful and worth sharing than whatever the fuck Blackfoot tries doing in this forum.

Pelicans expect Zion Williamson debut Jan. 22 vs. Spurs
As the NBA regular-season debut for Zion Williams draws near, the New Orleans Pelicans now have a targeted date in mind. Pelicans executive vice president of basketball operations David Griffin said Wednesday that the team anticipates Williamson will make his debut at home on Jan. 22 against the San Antonio Spurs. Williamson first returned to full practices on Jan. 2 and first participated in 5-on-5 drills on Jan. 7, but the Pelicans who just finished stretch of seven games in 11 days with a pair of back-to-backs simply didn't have enough down time to get more practices in. Williamson underwent surgery on the meniscus in his right knee on Oct. 21; the original timetable for the injury was six to eight weeks. His anticipated return date of Jan. 22 would be a little more than 13 weeks from the surgery. Williamson did play in four preseason games in October and averaged 23.3 points while shooting 71.4 percent from the floor in those games. His final preseason game was actually against the Spurs, the same team he's set to come back against.
