When 20-year-old Zion Williamson of the New Orleans Pelicans was selected for the All-Star game, he joined an elite group of players.

Although Zion Williamson was not voted in by the fans, players and media, he will still represent the New Orleans Pelicans in the All-Star game after being selected as a reserve.

This wasn’t a surprise, as Zion has been spectacular this season, particularly since being given more of the ball handling duties by coach Stan Van Gundy.
