Zion Williamson was at it again Tuesday night.

The Duke men's basketball star, likely No. 1 NBA Draft selection and potential future Knick led the No. 2 Blue Devils to an epic comeback as they erased a 23-point second-half deficit to defeat No. 16 Louisville, 71-69. The second-half comeback was the largest of the Mike Krzyzewski era and the second-largest in program history.

Williamson notched his 10th double-double of the season, scoring 27 points and grabbing 12 rebounds while going 9-for-15 from the field.

Most impressive was Williamson's performance when he re-entered the game with more than nine minutes remaining and four fouls. He had 11 points, four rebounds, three steals and a block with just one foul to give, going 7-for-8 from the free-throw line during that span.
