鵜鶘GM：Zion是頂薪球員，他能打時是歷史級別的強

Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans are facing a major decision this su
mmer. The former Duke superstar is now eligible for an extension, which many bel
ieve will be in the range of a $181 million max deal for five years. Pels vice p
resident for basketball operations David Griffin recently spoke out about the bi
g-money extension and it sounds like it’s only going to be a matter of time bef
ore this deal is sealed.



“It’s not a big decision, it’s a pretty easy decision,” said the high-rankin
g Pelicans executive on The Ryen Russillo Podcast, via ESPN. “The kid’s histor
ically good when he plays … this is a max player, that’s easy.”

鵜鶘GM：這不是一個重大的決定，這是一個非常容易的決定，這孩子在能打球的時候是歷史
級別的優秀……他是一個頂薪球員，這很容易做決定。








As it is, however, the Pelicans appear hesitant to fully guarantee Zion’s deal.
 This could primarily be brought about by the fact that injuries have been a maj
or issue in Williamson’s career thus far, particularly with how he missed the e
ntire 2021-22 season.

然而，事實上，鵜鶘似乎不太願意完全保障Zion的合約。這可能主要是因為傷病一直是Zion
職業生涯的一個主要問題，尤其是他錯過了整個2021-22賽季。

“What becomes significant as a team that’s a small market team and as a team t
hat can’t make mistakes in terms of injuries over time, you have to indemnify y
ourself in some way for that and that’s fine,” Griffin said. “But the decisio
n of whether or not this is a max player is an easy one. It’s really going to b
e about if you’re all the way in with us this is what it looks like and we’re
all the way in with him and I think we always have been.”



Griffin was rather cryptic in his statement but it’s not hard to decipher what
he’s trying to say here. It is clear that the Pelicans have every intention of
protecting themselves from the risk of a major injury. How this will reflect in
Zion’s new deal remains to be seen.

鵜鶘GM的聲明相當隱晦，但不難理解他在這裡想表達什麼。 很明顯，鵜鶘完全有保護自己
免受重大傷害的意圖。 這將如何反映在Zion的合約中仍有待觀察。
