I get the feeling Zion will not be one and done and could well play at least 3 .. Everything I've heard says he is one of those special kids who thinks for himself and enjoys the moment in life ..

what are your thoughts of Zion after watching his game last

Night against the California team? He is a big scorer because he gets a lot of baskets under the rim because of his size. His perimeter shooting was not good and I think he missed every free throw he took. He has a lot of work to do to play in the ACC. I can’t imagine him being a one and done.

Obviously with all the major programs recruiting him he is a special talent. I have never seen him play until last night and I am aware of his injuries and lack of playing time recently. With that said, I did not see him play like a number one recruit last night. He made a lot of layups and a couple of nice defensive plays but, other than that, he stood around most of the night. He got up the court slowly and wasn’t close on his free throws. I can’t wait to see him when he is 100. %. Last night he

half. He was obviously not in game shape. I think he did make one three, but his shooting does need work. I think he is usually a good free throw shooter, but was missing them last night. It appears to me that he needs to lose about 20 pounds. He's the same height and weight as me, and I'm 65 years old. I would guess he needs at least two years of college.
Interesting that, after the game, interviewer asked him, should they do away with the "one & done" and he quickly answered, "Yes, sir"!

Guarantee you he wont be one and done. He'll stay at least a couple of years to develop his jump shot. No way he's NBA caliber right now with his lack of a jump shot. He's a heck of an inside presence. That will Be huge for him while he develops his shot.

He would not have been playing last night, if not for ESPN, Ball leaving Chino Hills, and it being a specially scheduled game/national broadcast. Look at anything before November,2017 and you will see a player going nonstop for 32-40 minutes. Also keep in mind that he has not worked out or done anything else for 45 days, until walking around the court Thursday and Saturday. Only reason that he dressed Thursday was to make sure that ESPN did not cancelled the telecast last night. It lost it's prime time spot last night because Ball defected to Europe and Zion was likely not playing. Got put back to a ESPN3 game because of ^^above reasons.
*any 100% play, including dunks and brisk 1-on-1 play; will only injure his ankle worst*

No way. Not unless he's a total bust.

Lottery quality players don't play more than 1 season in college. I can't even think of an example of somebody that did right now (that wasn't a bust).
