Don’t look now but the New Orleans Pelicans have won four of their last five and are now sniffing the playoffs.
This is mostly because of the play of Zion Williamson, who has been nothing short of spectacular of late.
The 20-year-old is somehow exceeding his lofty expectations and is doing things we’ve rarely seen in the NBA.
He’s playing like point-guard Shaq and the Pelicans have had the number one offense in the NBA since he took over that role.
