Teenage basketball celebrities to square off Wednesday night in Las Vegas.

A month ahead of the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight, Las Vegas will be the site for another showdown of epic proportions.

This one is a meeting between teenage basketball celebrities LaMelo Ball and Zion Williamson.

Ball's Big Baller Brand team meets Williamson's SC Supreme squad at 9 p.m. PST Wednesday at the Cashman Center as part of the adidas Summer Championships.



Ball is entering his junior year at Chino Hills (Calif.) after averaging 26.7 points and nearly 10 assists per game as a sophomore. He famously authored a 92-point game in February.

Williamson piled up 36.8 points, 13.0 rebounds and 3.2 assists as a junior at Spartanburg Day (Spartanburg, S.C.). The king of high school basketball highlights has become such a phenom, rapper Drake was pictured wearing his jersey in January.

For those outside of Las Vegas hoping to catch the action, Ballislife will live stream the game via Facebook here.
