Zion Williamson, in a documentary made in 2016 in which he extols the importance of signing autographs, revealed he was once turned down by Anthony Davis — a rejection that made an impact on his life.
Williamson, who will be headed to New Orleans after the Pelicans won Tuesday’s lottery, could become teammates with Davis, though it is likelier the disgruntled Anthony is traded, possibly to the Knicks.
Williamson was 16 years old at Spartanburg (S.C.) Day School when the documentary on his high-school exploits was filmed by Home Team Hoops.
