VIDEO: Zion Williamson Finishes Huge Dunk on Pass From Lonzo Ball
By Karl Rasmussen
Zion Williamson hasn't even played 15 games in the NBA, yet the rookie is already asserting his dominance as one of, if not the, strongest man in the league. Zion spent the first quarter of Friday night's clash with the Blazers bullying Hassan Whiteside, and capped things off with an emphatic fast break slam, served to him on a dime from Lonzo Ball.
It's the Zion show for the Pelicans ?

Anyone plagued with the task of having to match up against Williamson is in for a long night, and Whiteside is learning that first hand on Friday evening. No one on the Blazers is capable of truly defending Zion, and his combination of explosiveness and size is proving to be a nightmare.
