He got a bit of a late start due to knee surgery, but Zion Williamson is lighting it up for the New Orleans Pelicans in his rookie season. The first overall pick has momentum on his side, and it only continued on Sunday when facing the lowly Minnesota Timberwolves. With New Orleans having a pretty substantial lead over Minnesota in the third quarter, Williamson provided the proverbial exclamation point with an emphatic windmill dunk.

This one is going directly into Zion's rookie highlight reel.

NBA teams just learned the hard way to never let Williamson get wide open like that, because he will thoroughly embarrass you in front of your own home crowd.
