Zion Williamson (knee) starting for Pelicans in NBA debut on Wednesday; J.J. Redick (hamstring, GTD) to come off bench if active
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson is starting on Wednesday in the team's game against the San Antonio Spurs.
Williamson is making his NBA debut after missing the first three months of the season with a knee injury, and he'll immediately be entered into the starting five. Joining him for his first regular season will be Lonzo Ball, Jrue Holiday, Brandon Ingram and Derrick Favors. That means that J.J. Redick - who is currently a game-time decision with a hamstring injury - will come off the bench should he be active.
Our models project Williamson for 24.6 FanDuel points across 21.0 minutes of action.
