Decent college freshman
Would you draft Zion over Elton Brand or Rasheed?
Brand was a top 5 PF when healthy for 5-8 seasons.
Same with Rasheed only he was consistently in the conference finals with various teams.
Do you think Zion will have a better career?

Zion is a generational talent, he could literally dominate in multiple sports (ala Bo, Bron, Deion, etc).
I don't understand how people on a NBA forum who religiously debate players can't see this
Williamson is going breeze past Brand/Rasheed's career high within his first two seasons

He's 6-7. That's why they debate it.

Zion is averaging 22.5 ppg shooting 68.4%...... as a freshman. I am old af and i don't remember anyone that looked like him as a freshman.
Shaq 15 pts shooting 57% as a freshman
Barkley 13 pts 60% (closest comp i can think of to Zion offensively)
Blake 15 pts 57%
Brand 13 pts 59%
Sheed 10 pts 60%

He's only 18 too so it's possible he could still grow some more right? Giannis grew 2 inches after being drafted.

Have you watched any Clippers games? Montrezl Harrell is averaging 22/9 per 36 shooting 62% and it isn't because of his size. It is because of his athleticism and motor.
He was a 2nd round pick btw.

I think most people that haven't seen him play are going to be blown away by his passing and court vision his rookie year, similar to how Lebron was.
Everyone knows his physicality is outter worldly but his overall game at that size and speed is what makes him unique
High IQ player

Love both of those players but neither of them have the ceiling of potential that Zion has.
He's just a really unique blend of talent, athleticism, brains, coachability and size that only comes around once in blue moon (Lebron)

Pretty much sums up what I was going for

Re: Would you draft Zion over Elton Brand or Rasheed?
Like Rasheed and Elton a lot, both competitive and talented players. But Rasheed was a hothead and difficult to play with. Elton although talented wasn't an extraordinary athlete which limited his ceiling.
Zion doesn't seem to suffer from either of these setback, as he's an athletic monster and seems to be a great teammate and can keep his cool.
