I was about to post this, myself. The Ringer has done some great work showing just how much Zion's stats stand out.

This is from earlier in the year with a lot of statistical comparisons.

Because he compared Zion to Aminu or Jerebko?

The data point about the games without a point guard and Zion being asked to essentially run the show(and doing so at such a high level on the fly) are what stood out to me.

Makes me rethink a bit of how quickly he can be a guy with the ball in his hands initiating the offense regularly.

And I've always felt if he can get there he will be a true game-breaking type player. As he will essentially be a bigger Lebron James esque facilitator. Which just opens the roster and lineup possibilities so much more because you no longer need a traditional point guard to facilitate your offense.

Yes.

It is pretty amazing that Zion was usedly similarly to those 2 guys but still able to put up some of the best numbers ever in a college season. That part stuck out to me the most as well.

They ran no plays for him, just expected him to mop up for everyone else, and he put up those numbers.


Officially stoked

Can Zion be LeBron? I don't know, but his ceiling is a bigger and faster version of him.

I really like the piece about his ball handling. If Zion could transition to more of a wing style player the way Jimmy Butler did after college....

I’m hoping basketball history looks back on Draymond as being a poor man’s Zion.
