re: Why does this Zion situation feel like Greg Oden?

Joel Embiid was a #3 overall pick.

Oden and Zion were both #1 picks who have issues getting on the floor. The pick after them were Durant and Ja Morant, respectively, who have obviously outplayed the first overall pick of their years.


I’m not saying the sky is falling. I will say the comparison, to date, is an apt one. I’ll worry more if Zion hasn’t played more than a handful of games by next year.
