Wonder if he had leg cramp?
Basketball.
So we have COVID concerns and now family matters. This NBA bubble is testing players and teams.
He did clarify it . Give him a break
Sources: Pelicans' Zion Williamson suffered from leg cramping this week and missed parts of practice before leaving team Thursday to tend to urgent family matter.

No update in 3 days. This all seems too quiet to me! It’s starting to make me think that he won’t be available. I hope I’m wrong.
I can't imagine Fletcher hasn't made his way out to Kenner and sneak into the Gabriels. Fly a drone overhead or something - not saying I condone that.
It's either something is wrong with his little brother, his mother, his step-father or his girlfriend (yikes!)....or, HE tested positive. Griff and Gayle might be the only two that know which is it.
And somebody smarter than me knows - what is the isolation rule. If he is tested every day while outside the bubble he can come back in a have to sit out 4 days? If not, he sits alone for two weeks? I'm confused.
If he tested positive, why hide it? Just tell us, put him in quarantine for the period and he'd play sometime in August. It's definitely a close relative in a bad way.
This is what the NFL Players want now.

Great news here. Basically squashes any notion he may have an injury
Okay nice, that's good to hear. Look forward to getting him back. Sucks he'll miss scrimmage time, but that's livable.
That's all we need. Less information the more doubt creeps in, even for optimists like myself.
So... no mention on when he might return and we’re 6 days from the restart of the season. There is a mandatory 4 day quartile from what I understand.
I’m beginning to think he is going to miss more games than we’re thinking.
Got to love that "transparency" that Griffin was preaching about when he got hired...
Granted tho... there are a plethora forms of family emergencies... not just Covid.
I understand the fatigue with the constant struggle with the franchise never able to build any momentum, but you really can't be mad. It is what it is. Just another speed bump.

Lou Williams did not practice today with the Clippers. A source tells @latimessports that Williams has left the NBA bubble for excused personal reasons and is expected to return soon.

Lou Will now out, for personal matter.
Lou Will, Montrezl, and PatBev all out of the bubble right now for personal reasons. We play the Clippers in 8 days.

Zion Williamson returned to the NBA campus in Orlando this evening, the team announced.

He was tested daily for COVID-19 while away from the team and produced negative results for all of them. Williamson is required to quarantine immediately, per NBA protocol. pic.twitter.com/5Olbwo1YvV
Yep just confirming, he's back
It looks like the NBA “bubble” is not so much of a bubble after all. People are leaving left and right. COVID will burst their bubble.
I think most people knew it wasn't going to be a particularly secure bubble in the first place, in terms of people coming and going. At the very least, the staff that work there aren't confined (as far as I know) and come and go daily as anyone going to work would. People have been streaming in and out of the bubble since the moment it was put up and to be honest, I don't think it's possible to have a real isolated bubble on this scale with this little preparation.
