NBA fans got a glimpse of just how explosive New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson can be when he manages to stay on the floor during the team’s season debut Wednesday.
Williamson had 23 points and seven rebounds in a 111–104 win over the Grizzlies. But one sequence in particular truly captured Williamson’s magic. He threw down a pair of electrifying dunks on consecutive offensive possessions late in the first half, first a big-time poster jam over defending Defensive Player of the Year Jaren Jackson Jr. and then a half-court alley-oop jam that sent the crowd into a frenzy.
