Hot Take of the Day: Cade Cunningham Will be Better than Zion Williamson

Zion Williamson averaged 22.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.1 steals and finished his first — and only — college season at Duke with a historically-great 40.8 PER.

Cade Cunningham will be statistically better.

Perhaps much better.

I do my best to refrain from hyperbole on this here website, but I can’t betray my eyes and my inner logic. And what both tell me is that, for as good as Williamson was in college, he also had to play a smaller role with R.J. Barrett and Cam Reddish — two fellow first-round picks — eating a slice of the pie.
