On an episode of The Herd with Colin Cowherd on Wednesday, Enes Kanter came up with an odd comparison when he postulated that the Duke basketball program’s fourth all-time No. 1 overall pick, Zion Williamson, is overhyped.
“I kind of feel like he’s overhyped,” Kanter said. “I feel like he’s Julius Randle with hops.”
“That’s how I believe. Some players are even scared to say it, but you know me, I’m not scared to say anything.”
Now, Kanter never actually made it to the floor for Kentucky after the NCAA ruled him permanently ineligible due to the over $33,000 in compensation he received playing for Turkish youth squad Fenerbahçe.
