Zion Williamson

The New Orleans Pelicans have been making waves in the Western Conference this season, and a large part of their success can be attributed to the dominant play of Zion Williamson. The former No. 1 overall pick has taken his game to new heights, emerging as one of the most unstoppable forces in the league. Williamson’s combination of size, strength, and athleticism has proven to be a nightmare for opposing defenses.

In a pivotal late-season matchup, the New Orleans Pelicans took a major step towards securing home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a 112-104 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. The win not only pulled the Pelicans within two games of the Clippers for the coveted 4th seed in the Western Conference standings, but it also gave them a 3-1 edge in the season series, securing the tiebreaker between the two teams.
