Seems like a great kid too.

Barring injury...

I believe he will be considered among the top 5 NBA players no later than his second season.

I also believe this is a safe prediction and not a stretch in any way.

If he can stay healthy he’s gonna be hell on wheels, a combination of Barkley and Karl Malone that leaps more like Shawn Kemp. I can’t believe how well he can shoot in mid range already.

For anyone who didn't see Zion's incredible blocked shot for last month, I am posting the link.
The side view of the block and his speed and athleticism is incredible.

And to top it off, this kid does not need to do alot of body building! He is solid as a rock, such talent in a young player

he'll probably get drafted by the Knicks and be ruined forever.

True, what a cruel fate.

You work day and night, all of your young life, to become the best there is at the game you love.

And then, you get drafted by... The Knicks?

Doesn't seem fair.

Knicks have 2 good 5’s in Jordan and the up and comer Robinson, you add Zion, he can flourish in the paint, it’s not like he would have to protect Kelly Olynck, plus you have Dennis Smith....add a couple pieces, who knows...??? If he has same impact as a Barkley or Karl Malone, he could transform that franchise.

Knicks won't be re-signing Jordan.
