Zion Williamson has made his way back to the NBA headlines as he is back with the New Orleans Pelicans and is shocking the basketball world with his greats. Last season was nothing but full of criticism for the young center. But now he’s back and stronger shutting all his critics down with impressive performances. Zion Williamson was always confident and in the recent match-up against the Indiana Pacers, he even reminded that to the league by going up against Myles Turner.
Myles Turner is one of the best shot-blockers in the league. Even the veteran centers and forwards in the game don’t risk jumping with him, especially for a dunk. But our guy, Zion Williamson is a different beast as in their recent battle he went up in the air and tried to end him with a MONSTROUS dunk. But unfortunately, he missed and we lost a great highlight.
