The New Orleans Pelicans have a young superstar in Zion Williamson and we haven’t seen a guy this hyped since LeBron James hit the scene for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

LeBron eventually won a title in Cleveland with a great storyline about the hometown hero who returned to win one for the beleaguered Cavalier fans.

It was a great story, but people tend to forget how LeBron got there, as he first left Cleveland for four seasons before returning after the Cavaliers completely botched his first tenure with the team.
