Great news for Zion Williamson fans. In his interview today he says he feels great, is "moving faster and jumping higher." Hard to believe but he seems positive and excited for the season. I can't wait to see him throwing down some monster dunks and bullying the rest of the NBA. He's the first player since Shaq that I feel is completely unstoppable in the paint and the most exciting dunker I've seen since Shawn Kemp.
Only if he stays healthy. I don't want to put hype on him at the early stage since being sidelined for too long because of an injury at a young age seems not a good sign of becoming a well-established player in the future. He is so athletic but because his body built is not blending well with his athleticism, there's seems to an incompatibility in his movements.
If I remember correctly, Joel Embiid is also sidelined for a long because of his injury in his early years. But he continues to make good progress after that and now becomes one of the best NBA players today. I hope Zion next season will now start to create a noise in the league and will stay healthy the whole season.
