Zion Williamson - Progressing in rehab Williamson (foot) is showing improved healing and will gradually progress to full-weight bearing exercise and basketball activity, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Impact The meaningful part of this update is that it appears Williamson has dodged the need for a second surgery, which was on the table in mid-February. And while this news is generally positive, it implies that Williamson currently isn't participating in full weight-bearing activities, which isn't encouraging given that there's about a month and a half left in the regular season. At some point, an attempt to get Williamson on the court probably doesn't make sense from a risk/reward standpoint. Until we get something more concrete regarding Williamson's activity level, fantasy managers should probably be pessimistic regarding a return to the court before the end of the fantasy season.
