Zion Williamson played in Madison Square Garden Thursday for the first but certainly not the last time and naturally he got a lot of questions about it.
The larger media is getting a sense of his boyish charm and his lack of pretentiousness - things that are going to make him a marketing dream - as he answered questions both humbly and playfully, telling reports that “this is RJ’s team” and then yelling across the locker room to see if RJ wants to be a Knick.
The Zion mania, we feel pretty certain, is just getting started.
