Jim Eichenhofer: Willie Green on Zion Williamson’s play in last night’s intrasquad scrimmage: “Z looked amazing. His strength, his speed. He dominated the scrimmage pretty much. And then he did a good job of looking for his teammates. What stood out the most was his force, more than anything.”

Everyone remembers how dominant Zion was when he was healthy, so I won’t do a “everybody forgot” post. But what might be forgotten is the supporting cast in his 29.3 points per 36 / 64.9% TS season. He has never played with this much offensive talent. -MP pic.twitter.com/6te9TWU7P3 – 5:37 PM

Dominated.
Strong.
Amazing.
Wrecking ball.
Zion had some fun in the Pelicans’ first scrimmage of training camp on Tuesday evening.

The majority of the players on the Pels roster had never played 5-on-5 with Zion until Tuesday’s scrimmage.
Willie Green said he “dominated.”
“I would say ‘dominated’ is a good word,” Larry Nance Jr. said.

It definitely reinforced how young #Pelicans rookie Dyson Daniels is (19) when he said after practice today of Zion Williamson: “He’s a great player. I watched that guy growing up.” – 4:02 PM

More on this storyline
Will Guillory: Willie Green says Zion Williamson “dominated” in scrimmages with the team last night. He noted Zion’s force and speed were really impressive. -via Twitter @WillGuillory / September 28, 2022
Oleh Kosel: Trey Murphy said he knew Zion Williamson was back and ready to resume torturing the league after a Z drive in last night’s scrimmage. Williamson knocked Naji Marshall out of the way, who in turn pushed Trey from being able to help defensively too. -via Twitter @OlehKosel / September 28, 2022
Andrew Lopez: Larry Nance on his advice to Zion Williamson: “You don’t put cheap gas in a Lambo.” Says he’s a 1 of 1 athlete and he has to treat his body as such. Added that he’s seen Zion make that commitment this offseason. -via Twitter @_Andrew_Lopez / September 26, 2022
