‘Tis the season, y’all. Pelicans rookie Zion Williamson hasn’t made his NBA debut, but that doesn’t mean he can’t spread the holiday cheer by giving his ENTIRE TEAM custom X-Box video game systems (I sound like a boomer) for Christmas.

Doesn’t that Zion-Lonzo Ball embrace just melt your little heat? Williamson has been sidelined for his entire rookie season so far, recovering from knee surgery. He did get up some shots at practice earlier, so it appears that he’s close to making his NBA debut for New Orleans.
We’re all patiently waiting for Zion to hit the court, but it’s nice to see that he was able to get his team in good spirits with the Pelicans on a 12-game losing streak heading into a matchup vs. the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday night.
