Zion Williamson Is Back Pulling Off Ridiculous Dunks In The Gym

Is Zion Williamson closer to a return than we previously thought?

Every new report seems to paint a grim picture of Zion’s future. But on Tuesday night, the Pelicans big man gave his fans a reason to hope.

On his Instagram page, Zion Williamson posted a video of himself looking in pretty good physical shape while back on a basketball court. Even better, he had the spring in his jump to pull off one of his ridiculous dunks.

The last week heard from Zion Williamson, it was being reported that the Pelicans players became aware not to expect him back this season.

“A couple of weeks ago, the coaching staff and the players became aware not to expect Zion back for the foreseeable future,” ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said last month.

At this point, it’s likely that Zion Williamson is just gearing up for a return next season given where New Orleans is in the standings. But if his latest video is any indication, he should have little problems getting back to full strength this offseason, barring another setback.
