Had to remind myself of what Zion can do when he's in shape. He was so much leaner last year (still gargantuan) and could move so much better. He was a tweener 4 who played the 3 at times, but now he's so huge the pelicans play him at center. Zion needs to become this guy again for his game and his health. All that weight is terrible for his knees

I never realized how much his style of play is similar to Shaq's - especially early Shaq. Shaq was able to run the floor, pass extremely well for someone his height, out-muscle his opponents on rebounds, and physically dominate when near the rim at will.

Zion at 275 was scary 😟 He was in a different gear in college ⚙️

Nobody is as quick on the inside or can jump and get in air as quick as Zion. Amazing.

This kid is amazing, been watching him since high school...

wow I literally just watched 38 mins of Zion Highlights and wasn't disappointed for a second !!

I always love hearing how Flabbergasted the announcers are in the beginning of the season and then towards the end they’re just like “Yup, this is normal for the kid.”

Really hope he gets back to being this explosive man. It doesn’t seem like he moves like this anymore

I've see some of the most explosive to do it . Dominique . Kemp . Mj . Vince . Kobe. Lebron. Blake etc . And something about this kid is on another planet . The explosion he has when he jumps it's like he blasts off the floor. His height isn't gunna mean shit because of his hops and the strength he has in his entire body . Hes solid beef from head to toe and hes gunna need it banging against the 7 footers in the league . Ppl keep bringing up the height of NBA players but he was abusing tacko fall like he wasn't even there. If he stays healthy and works on that jumper I see him as a career 20+ ppg kinda player easily and imo what sets him apart is his defense. Hes gunna be all NBA first team a handful of times and may even win dpoty a few times . Only one I've seen dunk like him really is Vince in terms of in game dunks. He doesn't have the overall dunk package Vince had but he has that tenacity and umph he had most definitely. In excited to see him play . I think him morant reddish barrett and a few others are gunna be all stars real soon
