Zion Williamson of the New Orleans Pelicans entered the league with as much hype as any player since LeBron James and has somehow exceeded it.
The second-year forward is changing the game of basketball before our eyes, evolving into a point forward who looks like a combination of LeBron, Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’ Neal while dominating games as few 20-year-olds ever have.
Zion has taken a huge leap as a player, becoming an unstoppable force in the lane while setting up teammates and being the primary ball handler.
