Pelicans' Williamson now in full-court, 5-on-5 drills. MORE:
METAIRIE, La. — When Zion Williamson finished his first full-court, five-on-five work since returning to practice last week, he spent extra one-on-one time with assistant coach Fred Vinson on the free throw line.
“Obviously conditioning is going to be the big thing there, but you know, you don't lose your feel for the game and he's a really good passer, a willing passer, so all of that stuff is going to be there," Gentry said."You've got to get yourself in basketball shape, conditioning-wise, and that's going to be a process.
“We want to make sure that everything is in place and we'll take our time," Gentry said, adding that there “definitely” would be minute restrictions placed on Williamson after he starts playing.
