NBA rising stars Zion Williamson and Jayson Tatum are both featured in Gatorade's recent “Be Like Mike” commercial — an updated version of the famous ad that originally aired in 1992.

The original commercial — which was focused on Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan — is one of the most popular ads in Gatorade history. In fact, the phrase “Be Like Mike” is still echoed in today's basketball culture.

Zion Williamson and Jayson Tatum — along with WNBA star Elena Delle Donne — are all shown through informal social media videos of them playing basketball which is cut and edited within the commercial's original footage.

As for the players themselves, Williamson has been limited to only 19 games with the New Orleans Pelicans due to injury. However, the 2019 No. 1 overall pick is averaging 23.6 points and 6.8 rebounds per game.

As for Tatum, the third-year pro was in the midst of a breakout season prior to the NBA suspension. Tatum has taken his game to the next level averaging 23.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.4 steals per game — all career highs.
