Zion Williamson Won't End Duke Career Early: I'd Be Letting a Lot of People Down

Despite some speculation that Zion Williamson should end his college career early and focus on the NBA, the Duke star plans to finish the season.

"I can't just stop playing," the freshman said Saturday, per Pat Forde of Yahoo Sports. "I'd be letting my teammates down. I'd be letting Coach K down. I'd be letting a lot of people down."

This comes after NBA Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen said on ESPN last week that he would "shut it down" if he were Williamson.
