Zion Williamson, whose highlights could fill a 10-season show on Netflix, pulled off a ridiculous 360-degree slam during No. 1 Duke’s rout of Clemson on Saturday night.

LOS ANGELES — Kurt Rambis said there’s a reason former Knicks president Phil Jackson has kept a low profile since getting fired 18 months ago.
