Zion Williamson is finally dunking again

It’s been a long time since we last saw Zion Williamson do anything notable while holding a basketball.

He last played in October during the preseason before the Pelicans held him out with a knee injury that, eventually, required surgery to fix.

He was due to be out six to eight weeks after meniscus surgery, but we’re well outside of that window now. The Pelicans are currently working on his kinetic chain to reduce wear and tear on his body.

It looks like all of that rehab is finally starting to pay off,. Williamson was spotted on the practice court for the Pelicans a couple of weeks ago.  On Saturday night, ahead of the Pelicans’ game against the Pacers, the number one pick was spotted dunking again.

And not JUST dunking — throwing down powerful one handed jams.

There was also this one with his right hand.

The Pelicans aren’t putting a date on his return but, hopefully, Williamson could be throwing down in an actual game soon enough. If these dunks are any indication, he’s feeling good.
