Pels shut down Zion, McCollum for rest of season

The New Orleans Pelicans are shutting down Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum for the rest of the season, the team announced Monday.

McCollum has been out since he sustained a bone bruise in his right foot on March 23, and Williamson has been sidelined since March 19 because of a bone bruise in his lower back. Both players will continue recovery plans that include rest and treatment.

New Orleans is second-to-last in the Western Conference and eliminated from contention for a play-in spot with seven regular-season games remaining.

Injuries helped derail the Pelicans' season from the start when newly acquired star guard Dejounte Murray fractured his hand in the season opener. He tore his right Achilles tendon later in the season. Williamson missed a chunk of time in the middle of the season due to a hamstring strain and costar Brandon Ingram missed time with a left ankle sprain before he was traded at the deadline.

Williamson, 24, had been on a tear since his return from that hamstring injury, averaging 25 points, 7 rebounds and 5.3 assists on 59.7% shooting from the field since Jan. 7.
