New Orleans Pelicans basketball is back as the Pels cruised to a 107-97 win over Melbourne United. In this game, we saw 15 different players, including rookies, two-way guys, and star players. And while this wasn’t against an NBA team, I couldn’t have been more impressed with what I saw from Zion Williamson in his 15 minutes of action.
The conditioning, the scoring, the defense, the playmaking, it was all so good, and this performance now only adds to the hype as Williamson enters his 7th season.
His stat line read 15 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 steals on 5-for-8 shooting from the field in his 15 minutes of playing time.
