Duke Basketball: Zion Williamson is best PG option until Tre Jones returns

Magic Johnson did it. LeBron James still does it. Same goes for Giannis Antetokounmpo and Justise Winslow. Big dudes can play point guard. And that includes Duke basketball freshman Zion Williamson — albeit he outweighs each of the above guys by at least 20 pounds.

Not only does the 6-foot-7, 285-pound native of Mars possess all the necessary tools to play the position — he did so all his life up until his growth spurt in ninth grade — but he is the Blue Devils’ best option at the moment.
