Zion Williamson dominates the game for the New Orleans Pelicans, even when he doesn’t score.

Zion Williamson had a relatively quiet night for the New Orleans Pelicans in their 120-116 win over the Toronto Raptors.

But he still dominated the game.

Zion ended with 21 points and seven rebounds after a more aggressive second half, but it was his presence alone that dominated the Raptors.

Zion Williamson doesn’t necessarily need to score 30 points a night for the New Orleans Pelicans to win, as he affects the game in so many ways, often before it is even played.
