“Honestly, I’m ready now,” Williamson said. “I’ve been staying in shape, working on myself and just staying ready. You never know when the time is going to come when they’re going to say, ‘All right, let’s resume.’ I don’t want to have to look around at my teammates and say, ‘Sorry, guys, I’m not ready.’ So I’m staying ready for my teammates.”
He said he looks at the stoppage of the season from two different perspectives.
“It sucks because I had just come back after sitting three, four months without playing basketball or playing in an NBA game,” he said. “As soon as I felt like I was getting going, this happens. It sucks from that perspective. But I think it’s a good thing because it gives me extra time to work on my knee and work on my body overall.”
When the season was suspended, the Pelicans were 3½ games back of the eighth spot in the Western Conference playoffs.
Let’s hope we can save the season.
