Zion Will Be Wearing Jordans

Looks like Zion will be wearing Jordans when he hits the court with the New Orleans Pelicans. The college sensation and No. 1 overall pick has signed a shoe deal with Nike's Jordan Brand.

Williamson said he was "incredibly blessed to be a part of the Jordan Brand family", saying he's long dreamed of "having the type of impact on the game Michael Jordan had".

Terms of the deal were not disclosed but are estimated to be worth as much as $10 million per year. He'll join fellow Jordan Brand stars like Russell Westbrook and Chris Paul.
