Zion Williamson of the New Orleans Pelicans scores two of his 32 points over a host of Spurs defenders in the first half at the AT&T Center on Wednesday night.Midway in the first half Wednesday, a 6-foot-6 freight train scooped up a loose ball at one end of the court, barreled to the other and completed a ballerina-graceful layup that sent Spurs rookie Jeremy Sochan sprawling.The New Orleans forward finished with 32 points to pace an easy-does-it 129-110 victory at the AT&T Center.
The Spurs’ first field goal came on a Keldon Johnson baseline jumper with 7:10 remaining in the opening frame.Despite about as a poor a start as a team could muster, the Spurs trailed by only 10 points at the end of the first quarter.The Spurs played with a bit more purpose for much of the third and fourth quarters, but by then the hole was just too great.
He was 0-of-4 from 3-point range against New Orleans, his first game this season without a long ball.When he committed a turnover less than 90 seconds into the third quarter, Popovich pulled his leading scorer from the game.He spent the remainder of the game on the far end of the Spurs’ bench, on the other side of injured guard Josh Richardson, who was in street clothes.There isn’t another player in the NBA quite like Williamson.
