“Bunch of fake tough guys”- Zion Williamson throws ICE COLD 360 windmill dunk resulting in an UGLY brawl between the Suns & Pelicans, fans react

Altercation that took place after Zion Williamson's windmill dunk

In the closing seconds of Friday night’s game between the New Orleans Pelicans and the Phoenix Suns, Zion Williamson unleashed an incredible 360-degree windmill slam. Zion made the exclamation point to put the dagger in Phoenix in a showdown between two of the top teams in the NBA, and the Suns weren’t happy about it as it resulted in a slight altercation between the teams.

On Friday night, the Pelicans won their sixth straight game thanks to another outstanding performance from Zion Williamson. This Phoenix Suns squad was those who eliminated the Pelicans from the playoffs last year and this was special for them. Since the birth of sports, there have been unwritten rules to maintain intense competition. As a result, you typically notice when a player appears to be breaking one of these rules quite fast. A parallel incident occurred during Friday night’s victory for New Orleans over Phoenix.

With less than ten seconds left, the Pelicans had the game firmly under control, leading by nine points. Zion Williamson of the Pelicans decided to put on a show for his Pelicans fans instead of dribbling out the clock, as is traditional in such circumstances for the winning team, by launching a tremendous 360 windmill slam in the final seconds.

Williamson pumped up the fans after the fierce dunk by flexing and roaring to his teammates. This action put an end to the Suns’ displeasure with Chris Paul attacking Jose Alvarado prior to the intervention of officials and Pelicans coach Willie Green.

He also got into a heated altercation with a coach from Phoenix. Just after the game concluded, several members of both teams’ rosters and coaching staff were spotted pushing and insulting one another in the middle of the court.

In the first round of the 2022 playoffs, the top-seeded Suns played the eighth-seeded Pelicans. Zion Williamson, who didn’t participate in every game throughout the season, stood helpless as Phoenix defeated New Orleans in a contentious series.
