Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans faced a tough 2024-25 NBA season, ending up in a disheartening 14th place in the Western Conference with a disappointing 21-61 record. On top of the lackluster performance on the court, Williamson, the $197 million NBA superstar, encountered additional challenges in his personal life.

“This was submitted to Los Angeles Superior Court yesterday: NBA superstar Zion Williamson accused of rape. Plaintiff says she was in a dating relationship with him at Duke—before it got abusive,” Gardner wrote in his recent reports.
