The New Orleans Pelicans are not having the start to the season they would have thought of. They’re off to a 1-7 start, losing their 7th game of the season tonight. However, their bad start to the season wasn’t a big surprise for a lot. Their young stars, Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram, both are out due to injury.
Zion, who suffered a foot injury during the offseason, is still recovering, and no timeline has been issued. Brandon Ingram, who suffered a right hip contusion, is eyeing a return soon. With BI returning to the lineup, the Pelicans would get a huge boost. They would hope to get back to winning games then. During the half-time break of the Pelicans-Suns game, Zion was out on the court, which generated a very interesting comment from Charles Barkley.
Charles Barkley’s comment about Zion Williamson has Shaquille O’Neal dying
Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal are two integral parts of Inside the NBA. Their unapologetic comments keep the show entertaining, and the viewers can never complain about any airing being boring.
Tonight, when Charles Barkley saw Zion Williamson on the court at half-time, practicing, had a very interesting reaction.

Shaq and the rest of the crew couldn’t stop laughing about the comment, and rightly so.
Zion’s weight gain has been a cause of concern for the Pelicans fans and many have spoken up about the same. People expect him to get in shape before he takes the NBA floor for his first game of the season.
