It’s kinda crazy how Zion has basically become an afterthought (alien.top)

I remember the hype coming out of duke, how teams were tanking for him, the “generational” talent/prospect talks. How by this time Zion would either be the straight up face of the league or one of them. Definitely a top ten player and more than likely a top 5 player by now. That basically didn’t happen, he’s been surpassed by other young players since. I legit remember several Who would you rather have going forward Luka or Zion threads. It’s crazy

It’s hard to watch when by like 24 he’s already clearly slower and doesn’t jump nearly as high.

Sky was the limit and he’s regressing before 25

You clearly didn’t watch his several ally oops last night, he still gets up there no problem

Just went and watched, he’s definitely a step slower and less explosive.
