      @Bale Sahagun If develops a decent catch and shoot game from three and a reliable post game, like one or two moves he can always go to, then he'll average 25+ on ridiculous efficiency in his prime.
      Adding a floater or teardrop to help him evade those 7 foot monsters in the paint like Steven Adams and Gobert will make him completely unstoppable.
      Good thing is he has a great work ethic so I expect to adapt quickly and keep improving.

      Hularious that the faults they pick out are his handle and his off hand. The kid has a solid right imo. And for his size he has enough of a handle to be efdective. From what I've seen he already has just as good of a first step as lebron and a little more wiggle and shake to his game. If he become a solid jump shooter he will be unstoppable. Cant just pack the lane in the nba like you can in college.

    • @Anthonydu01630

      The Heir Genetic is 90% of the reason why NBA players are NBA players stop being delusional ... Do you know that 19% of the total population of the world over 7 feet are in NBA ??? And do you know that only 1% of the men population in US are over 6ft6 ???
      And in that 1%, most of these guys are slow, lanky and unathletic. Zion is an anomaly just like Shaq, Lebron, Giannis or Wilt chamberlain, you dont even realise how rare these guy are, its impressive even for a 5ft8 to have a 40inch vertical, Zion has 44 ... You can work all your life, take all tye steroid in the world you will never be like zion its a fact man, Zion is 2 inch taller and 20pounds heavier than Ngannou, he is a fucking flying fridge man its not normal.
      How many 6ft7 guy you know ? Personaly i dont even know 1, i have 2 friends who are 6ft6 and 1 of them isnt athletic at all ...
      Personaly i dont understand why American make their kids dream about being basketball players, the average height in NBA is 6ft7, and only 1% of the total population will be over this height, and probably only 0,3% will be athletic enough to enter the NBA, thats nothing ... You should make your kids dream about being a soccer player, thats were you have the most possibility and money, because football can make you rich on every continent, there are 11 players in a team and you dont need to be 6ft6.
      If genetic isnt the reason why 90% of the NBA is black from west africa ??? You know that white are on average taller than black ? But black are more athletic, faster, jump higher, more explosive and agile ... You cant look at NBA or sprint and say no they are here because of hard work, you think there is no white, asian, indian who work harder than zion ??? Asian people are literally robot man, they are conditionned to work hard since a young age but they are almost no asian in basketball, football, soccer, rugby ect because they are the weakest physicaly thats the sad truth.

    Zion Williamson's gift as an athlete will forever be criticized even as an elite NBA player.
    No one has the full complete package with the exception of a few that could eclipse the imagination of even the greatest to come after then from the likes of Elgin Baylor, Connie Hawkins and Julilus Erving to Dominique Wilkins Michael Jordan to Kobe Bryant and LaBron James.
    But now if the basketball gods have truly blessed Zion Williamson to the pinnacle of or above the names mentioned, then so be it, cause he has every attribute to achieve greatness even in humility with a great character..

    6'10" wingspan for a 6'7" guy. That's pretty average, if not a tad short.
    For comparison, guys like Charles Barkley, Vince Carter, and Draymond Green have at least +7'0" of wingspan, and those guys are shorter than Zion.
    Then we have Kawhi Leonard, a 6'7" forward, a total freak of nature with huge hands, and the wingspan of 7'4". That's put him on par with Giannis Antetokounmpo.
