Preseason musings about Zion, Giannis, and the Doncic-Porzingis pairing

During the lulls between in Warriors preseason basketball games, I’ve tuned into a few other teams to check out what they’ve got cooking. The New Orleans Pelicans, Dallas Mavericks, and Milwaukee Bucks all gave me something to write home about.

Zion Williamson is leading me to believe that the massive hype that’s followed him since high school is legit. His freakish athleticism is translating quite well so far in the pros. He reminds me of a young LeBron James or Russell Westbrook in the sense that his physical presence is so dominant that it feels like he’s always getting downhill on his opponents.
