have a likely all nba player entering his third year, the year most players break out.

to be fair zion was seriously injured year#1. misses games. morant rookie of year because zion not available too much although came on strong late.

last year not 82 games. and greatly impacted team practices.

also important re growth is missing playoffs and even the 1 to 3 games of playin stress loser goes home.

I expect much better conditioning year3. some Duke D.
I feel year3 either shows zion as duke D monster or he's never returning to Duke D intensities and any improvement is technique and knowing where to go in the new defense which at last there will be ordinary camp to learn.
