UPDATE: Williamson OUT after Knee Injury in Opening Minute vs. UNC

UPDATE No. 2: Zion Williamson will not return.

UPDATE No. 1: It doesn’t look like Zion Williamson will be returning to the court.

Nolan Smith just came back to the bench from the locker room and shook his head when asked question from assistant Jon Scheyer. Just a guess — but don’t think we’ll be seeing Zion again tonight.
