Zion Williamson is 6-foot-6 and 275 pounds. Zion Williamson is a freak of nature. Zion Williamson is also one of four five-star recruits set to take the court for the Duke Blue Devils basketball team this coming fall.
If Williamson’s on-court display is anywhere near what we’ve seen on viral videos, he’ll be the talk of the college basketball world.
Here’s the latest example of this, with the freak legitimately throwing down a dunk from the free-throw line. It happened. It’s on video. It’s not fake news. And it’s all sorts of brilliant.

A few points here. Williamson is 6-foot-6. Williamson weighs 275 pounds. Williamson just dunked from the free-throw line.
If this kid gains any sort of a mid-range game during what will be a one-year career at Duke, we fully expect him to be a top-three pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.
Why? Well, look at the video and his frame.
