I think the in regular season games , teams will let Zion throw down a few times a game. Good for fans, the NBA, Nike. If he shoots well, he can average closer to 18-20 a game, but there are a lot of scorers on that team.

The crazy is that it looks like he’s not even trying. I’m sure they told him to not go crazy in the preseason. It just looks like it’s coming so easy to him.

First it was:
“But, but, but Zion only dominated slow white boys in high school. He’s going to suck in college”

*Zion wins ALL of the college POY Awards*

“Well, he’s not going to be able to do that in the NBA!”

*currently has 29 points against NBA players*

Moral of the story: Kentucky fans don’t know ****!

Pelicans beat the Bulls 127-125 behind 29 from Zion and a strong 4th quarter performance from Frank Jackson (12 points, 4-of-4 from 3) and Jahlil Okafor (13 points).

Don’t worry, the new hate is “it’s just the preseason. Nobody cares.”

Eventually NBA teams will take away from Zion his left handed moves. By that time, I'm confident he will have developed even more tools that will make him even more unstoppable. Something to look forward to.

Zion made it look easy last night. Dare I say he made the Chicago Bulls look like a bunch of skinny High School white kids????

I've never been a Lonzo guy because of his dad. However, I really like Lonzo playing with Zion. Zion has never played with a passer like Lonzo. Lonzo throws a perfect alley-oop, and Zion is gonna catch many of them.

I only saw the highlights, but I sure saw a lot of the same moves he was making last year in college against NBA size and talent. His speed, strength, and agility all seem to be off the charts even at this level. Such a fun player to watch, and I am loving the Duke gear in the post game interview!
