Such a shame with Zion. He is listed at 6’7 284 still! That was his listed size at Duke!!
He’s at least 310 if not more. He really needs to play at about 270, to be honest. He’d be dominant. As it is he is slow and doesn’t nearly have the vertical he used to. Oh well. If he’s happy that’s okay I guess. But hate it for the Pelicans drafting him 1.
