“To be in the company of those legends is a huge honour for me”: Zion Williamson reveals his true feelings about being the 4th youngest All-Star behind Kobe, LeBron and Magic Johnson

NBA fans react to a Zion Williamson lookalike beating up 6 guys outside of a bar with and question why anyone would even take that fight. 

Zion Williamson burst onto the scene in 2019 as a 6’7, 284 pound uber-athletic forward who could make men like Rudy Gobert and Jonas Valanciunas look like they needed to put on more weight. His dominance down-low stemmed from the physicality he brought to the table from his linebacker-esque frame. 

Picturing Zion Williamson in your head, it seems quite impossible that someone out there exists who shares a near identical frame to his and is not a professional athlete of sorts.  

This however, has clearly been proven wrong as a man who looks near identical to the former Duke Blue Devil was spotted outside of a bar throwing absolute haymakers at 6 people. It’s clear from the video that he’s about the same height as Zion, which ultimately became the difference maker in this fight.

A Zion Williamson lookalike stirs up NBA Twitter as fans react to the man taking on 6 men at once. 

Regardless of how tall you are, holding off 6 grown men in a fight is an incredible in and of itself. Though this is not Zion Williamson, NBA fans sure had a boatload of un believing that it was and questioned why anyone would even want to pick a fight with someone who resembles the Pelicans star’s body type.

It is still unclear who this man is but many claim that he is indeed a football player but no one seems to know whether it is at the collegiate level or anything higher.  

It would be a shame to find out that this man isn’t putting his Hulk-like frame to good use and profiting off of ramming his body into quarterbacks and wide receivers.
