Zion Williamson has caught another break at the moment as he won’t have to out Coach K and the Duke Blue Devils yet.
Here is the report:
“Zion Williamson is granted a full stay of the Florida lawsuit brought by Gina Ford,” Wallach wrote on Twitter. “The 3rd DCA’s Order states that ‘the trial court’s proceedings are hereby stayed.’ This means that he will not have to answer Ford’s discovery requests – for now – as venue shifts to NC.”
Wallach added: “The trial court judge had no discretion to deny the stay under longstanding FL precedent. Third DCA’s decision in a case involving Sergei Federov mandated a stay here. An abuse of discretion not to have entered it. Was a slam dunk winner for Zion. Always was.”
So for now, Williamson will not have to answer questions about any impermissible benefits received. As Wallach noted, the stay doesn’t guarantee that Williamson is permanently off the hook.
