New Orleans Pelicans young power forward Zion Williamson showcased his pace and skills to help the side in securing a much-needed win against the San Antonio Spurs.
The Pelicans came out on top in a nail-biting contest against the Spurs at the Frost Bank Center with a score of 114-113 on Friday.
In a video that appeared on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — Williamson made an incredible solo run and netted two crucial points which proved to be the difference with just 3.2 seconds remaining. It was the Pelicans' second consecutive defeat after three back-to-back losses.
With the win, Pelicans stay on top of the Southwest Standings with 28 wins and 21 defeats whereas the Spurs are on the fifth position with just 10 wins and 39 defeats.
Williamson was the star performer for the winning team on the night as he ended up registering 33 points including eight rebounds and four assists. It was the first occasion in the last six outings in the competition where the 23-year-old registered 30 or more points for the team.
After that performance, Williamson is now averaging 22 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game. His best performance this season came against the Minnesota Timberwolves where he registered 36 points to go with five rebounds and two assists.
