New Orleans Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson could reportedly be among the players to participate in the proposed H-O-R-S-E competition set to be broadcast on ESPN.

The NBA and NBPA are reportedly in discussions to have ESPN televise the event to fans across the United States. The game would likely be held in home gyms as the players would be in different locations due to social distancing guidelines.

While details of the event are still being finalized, Andrew Marchand of the New York Post reported some of the players that could be involved, including Williamson, Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook. Marchand went on to say that none of the players are confirmed yet.

Having Williamson, along with other stars in the NBA, involved in the event could help draw fans to watch. The NBA has worked to help provide entertainment to fans around the world with various fitness programs and social media challenges. On Friday, the NBA and 2K launched the NBA 2K Players Only Tournament that broadcast on ESPN.
