JJ Redick On Teaming Up With Zion Williamson At Duke South

In case you were wondering, yes, JJ Redick is excited to be teammates with Zion Williamson: “Obviously I watched Zion a ton at Duke. I probably watched eight or 10 games this year, all of the tournament. I love his skillset and all that. What I love the most is the kind of person he is. Even before New Orleans had won the lottery, Coach K had called me right after we lost to Toronto. We were just chatting about RJ (Barrett) and Zion. He basically said ‘Zion is the best kid in the world.’ That’s exciting to be able to work with someone and help someone as they navigate those first few years, is all ears and is open to things.
