The night belonged to LeBron James and the Lakers, but the culmination of the night belonged to Zion Williamson.
Zion launched these last explosive dunks, but the latter on the poor two-way player Trey Jemison could have been his best of the season.
Sion scored 37 in this match, which was not enough against the red-heated Lakers, but he and the Pelicans showed signs of life recently, going 4-2 in their last six. It is too little, too late for an post-season thrust, but it is a sign of what the Pelicans could be if they add a choice of draft and are healthy for a season.
It was night LeBron has become the first player in the history of the NBA to reach 50,000 points scored In the regular season and combined playoffs. He finished with 34 points, Luka Doncic found his groove and collected 30 points and 15 assists, and the Lakers won a 136-115 victory.
But everyone was leaving Crypto.com Arena always buzzed on the Dunk of Zion.
