Zion Williamson, the stud High School basketball player and future star at Duke, was up to his old ways again.
On February 22nd, in a game against Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach, the Spartanburg Day School star threw down an absolutely crazy dunk, and things got even worse for the defender when the ball came down and hit him right in the face.
Zion just getting mean at this point 😮 @ZionW32 pic.twitter.com/YGaMg9Hoiy

In case you haven’t been paying attention, Williamson was one of the most sought-after recruits in the country with almost every major College program trying to get him to commit to their school. In January, Williamson verbally committed to play for the Duke Blue Devils and legendary coach Mike Krzyzewski. He chose Duke over other finalists Clemson, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Despite still being in high school, he can count Drake, Odell Beckham Jr., and Kevin Durant amongst his fans. Drake and Beckham have worn his jersey, and Durant described him as a “once in a generation-type athlete.” He also has amassed over one million followers on Instagram.
Williamson is undoubtedly someone to pay attention to in the years to come and don’t be surprised if you see him lining up against Lebron James sooner rather than later.
