New Orleans Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson is the first teenager in NBA history to score 20-plus points in 10 straight games.

Williamson entered Friday averaging 23.3 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists. There have only been two games this season where the Pelicans rookie hasn't scored 20 points.

It would be a great story if Williamson is able to lead the Pelicans to the playoffs after missing the beginning of the season recovering from his knee surgery. Zion's powerful dunks are already breaking backboards and heā€™s flying through the air just like Michael Jordan did with theĀ Chicago Bulls. The fact that Williamson is signed with Jordan Brand and wearing Jordanā€™s while dunking just feels right.

There hasn't been this much hype surrounding a young player since LeBron James came into the league back in 2003. So far, Williamson looks like he's going to dominate the NBA for the next decade or so assuming he stays healthy.
