Zion will definitely miss the game for several months. Does the NBA really have the so-called "number one curse"?

In this year's NBA draft contest, Zion Williamson from Duke University was selected as the No.1 pick this season, and the Pelican team was also preparing to rebuild around Zion, but the No.1 pick was injured after only four games at the beginning of the new season. In the past 30 years, the NBA has had a championship curse, that is, there will be a parallel champion every six years. I wonder if Zion can break this curse.

1989, the champion Pavison Allison was injured and became the champion of parallel imports. 1995, joe smith was selected by the Warriors. However, due to the contract incident, he missed 400 games and averaged only 9.5 points in the NBA. The top pick of 200 1 is kwame brown, who averaged only 6.6 points in the NBA. In 2007, the Blazers selected Auden with their No.1 pick, but Auden only played 105 games in the NBA because of injury. In the 20 13 season, the Cavaliers chose Anthony Bennett with the No.1 pick, averaging only 4.4 points per game. This time, Zion was also injured and needed to remove the meniscus. The operation dealt a great blow to the athletes.

Zion has played four preseason games for the Pelicans this season. Judging from the data of four preseason games, Zion's state is still very good, averaging 26.7 points per game. Moreover, Zion's defense, rebounds and assists are very good, which can be said to be very comprehensive.

Fortunately, Zion's absence time is only about two months, and he won't miss all the games this season, so we are still looking forward to Zion's healthy return to the highest level before surgery, which is a very good ending for himself and the Pelican team.
