Pelicans star Zion Williamson visits Saints training camp and throws 50 yards

Zion Williamson is a man in demand right now, having been selected with the number one overall pick in the NBA Draft.

The New Orleans Pelicans superstar joined Nike's Jordan Brand last week and, remaining in the spotlight ahead of his first professional season, he visited the NFL's Saints on Monday.

New Orleans sports fans were treated to the sight of Williamson and Drew Brees trading passes in one social media video.

And Zion's ability with a ball was evident again when the Pelicans uploaded a clip of their main man launching a throw from more than 50 yards over the posts.
