Just about every basketball fan has heard of 5-star recruit Zion Williamson by now. The junior out of Spartanburg Day School in South Carolina has thrown down numerous monstrous dunks this season that have gone viral.
No matter how many times we see one of his dunks blow up across the Internet, it’s still hard to believe that this kid is only 16-years-old.
The 6-foot-7 high school junior recently paid a visit to Kentucky and it seems like it added an extra step to his game. In his first performance since his visit, Williamson dropped 45 points and added 20 rebounds and 5 assists in his team’s 87-15 victory, but also threw down another jaw-dropping slam in the win.
There was no way any of those defenders were going to attempt to block him on that play. That wasn’t the only big dunk he threw down on Tuesday night.
This kid is already putting up ridiculous stat lines and making incredible plays and he’s barely even old enough to drive in his home state. We’re guessing we’ll be hearing his name called at the NBA Draft in a couple of years.
