You have to get used to it, performances like the one performed last night will become the norm for Zion Williamson. For the second consecutive game, No. 1 in the last draft broke his career point record. However, this performance was not enough to snatch the victory (123-118 defeat against Oklahoma City).
Zion Williamson’s career-high will not have even lasted two days… Already excellent against the Blazers Tuesday evening, the golgoth of the Pelicans did it again that night against OKC, and in his style so particular, so physical, he again beat his record of points .
In the defeat, he still compiled 32 points (11/19 shooting), 6 rebounds and 1 assist. If the stats sheet is less complete than usual, Zion has shown great progress in an area he normally lacks, free throws, with a very good 10/13 in the exercise. Regardless of the end result, this new big indoor game propels him directly alongside Michael Jordan in history.

Zion Williamson is the first rookie in 35 years to record 8 games at least 20 points out of the top 10 in his career.
Who was the last rookie to do this? Michael Jordan.
Realizing such statistics even when he is not 100% physically, it is impressive. And if some thought that the weight of Zion Williamson was going to be a handicap in the NBA, it is clear that the power that ensues is his greatest asset.
