The Zion Williamson era hasn't gone the way the New Orleans Pelicans have hoped. Even though the team had Zion, Brandon Ingram, CJ McCollum, and a plethora of talented role players, they've never won a single playoff series.

The New Orleans Pelicans are poised to make a leap next season if they bring everyone back — Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy III, Herb Jones, Dejounte Murray — and draft well. The first people to get a look at that team will be in Australia.

Zion Williamson had 22 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans snapped a four-game slide with a 127-120 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.
