WATCH: Pelicans' Zion Williamson makes soaring NBA Summer League debut

MANILA, Philippines — Promising rookie Zion Williamson has entered the NBA with a bang after a highlight-reel performance with the New Orleans Pelicans in his NBA Summer League debut.

Emerging victorious against his former teammate RJ Barrett and the New York Knicks, Williamson left the Las Vegas audience in awe.

In the 80-74 Pelicans win over New York, Williamson notched 11 points.

The game was cut short due to an earthquake that rocked California.

Just like when he was in Duke, Williamson busted out some high-flying jams that made the crowds go wild.

Williamson was the top pick in the 2019 NBA Draft and was hyped even long before he declared for the draft.
