Even Zion Williamson's misses can send Cameron Indoor Stadium into an absolute frenzy.
If Duke freshman Zion Williamson is known for one thing, it's his dunks.
The 6-foot-7, 285-pound power forward has taken the world of college basketball by storm with his high-flying, rim-pounding slams.Tuesday night, the Blue Devils led the Boston College Eagles by 17 midway through the second half when Williamson intercepted a pass and streaked down the floor in preparation for one of his massive breakaway dunks. But instead of opting for one of his usual slams, the Spartanburg, South Carolina, native attempted a reverse dunk. The ball ricocheted off the rim, but that didn't stop the Cameron Crazies from erupting into cheers. Williamson and his teammates couldn't help but laugh at the gaffe.
Check out the full video below:"Look, he's a human being," Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "He's going to miss. It was pretty hot in here too, and I just think he was sweating a lot."
Williamson finished the night with a cool 16 points and 17 rebounds in the Blue Devils' 80-55 win, but fans will have to wait until Duke's next lopsided matchup for a chance to see Williamson actually complete the dunk.Zion Williamson is, in fact, human pic.twitter.com/amCUg7nQqJ
