I'm gonna go out on a limb and say even if he plays heavier minutes. He is a HUGE liability defensively in where his positioning is supposed to be.
Like he's always out of position..his athleticism covers for it but he'll lose you points high key on that end.
Still impressive though is his rate of points per minute. But that D..
I agree, it's more confusion on rotations and switches than it is bad defense on the ball, he has defended bigs well and done alright on perimeter players when defending the ball. He just gets lost a lot, he will get better with time at that.

This is a 101 on how to completely mishandle a young franchise player’s career.


He should have never been in summer league because he was fat and out of shape and now he’s still fat and out of shape with a bum knee that will plague him his whole career

No need for young Zion to rush back with a whole career ahead of him. It's not like the Pelicans are winning anything this year so they need to continue to monitor his health and minutes like they have been doing so far.

Around here it’s called treadmillng :francis:

with the talent on that team they need to go into the playoffs and just compete...They can make further moves to improve. I wouldn’t call them a treadmill team. Now the blazers, Magic, Pistons are what I have in mind for treadmill.
