Many fans, even some of the Duke basketball variety, are growing bored by all the hype surrounding Zion Williamson.
Who can blame them?
By noon each day online, seemingly thousands of new headlines include his name (yes, Ball Durham takes partial responsibility for this). And by noon each day, ESPN has already replayed his latest aerial wonders while repeating his height (6-foot-7) and weight (reports range from 275 to 285 pounds) enough times to make fans wonder why the network doesn’t just create a channel called ESPNZion.
Following No. 2 Duke’s 66-53 home win over Georgia Tech on Saturday, Bleacher Report even advertised for readers to subscribe to a constant stream of all things Zion.
