Zion Williamson dunked so hard he damaged the rim in Rising Stars game

There are few players in the NBA who can dunk with the force of New Orleans Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson, and Zion unleashed his full fury on the helpless rims of the United Center on Friday night during the Rising Stars game.

Workers were forced to fix one of the rims and backboards at halftime of the game, after Williamson knocked the entire basket off center during a dunk.

Williamson tried to put on a show for fans at the end of the fourth quarter, but missed several attempts at uncontested, dunk-contest worthy slams.
