How to Coach Zion Williamson Remotely
GQ Sports Interview with Bzdelik that gives us a little insight to his current role and level of participation.

I jumped in there real fast before Nene reached across the table,” Bzdelik laughs. “All year long we had great examples of Nene blocking people off, making sure DeMarcus Cousins and Dwight Howard and people like that didn’t grab offensive rebounds
