Duke Basketball: Zion Williamson tornado destroys Grant Hill alley-oop

According to Wonderopolis.com, only about five percent of tornadoes that take place in the northern hemisphere rotate clockwise. But that stat probably doesn’t take into account the one on Saturday night from Duke basketball freshman Zion Williamson.

The viral 360 — Williamson is ambidextrous, yet primarily a lefty on the basketball court, meaning his natural motion for such a dunk is clockwise — has surprisingly not yet broken the internet. But it did its best.

Unfortunately, though, that one play overshadowed his amazing all-around game — yet pretty much just business as usual for the 6-foot-7, 285-pounder who possesses at least a 45-inch vertical leap and an unmatched motor on both ends of the floor.
