Zion Williamson: 'It Would be Dope to Play With KD and Kyrie' Next Season

Duke's Zion Williamson is almost unanimously projected to go as the NBA's top draft pick come June, but where he'll land is still unknown. There are, however, a few specific players he'd like to play alongside.

After dominating in the Blue Devils' 91–61 win over St. John's–Williamson posted 29 points on 13-of-17 shooting that came with a flurry of highlight-worthy finishes—the freshman phenom was asked about who he'd like to draft him.

While Williamson said he is ready to contribute on whatever team takes him, he also said it would be "dope" to play with Warriors star Kevin Durant or Celtics guard Kyrie Irving, two days after the New York Knicks cleared cap space to offer two max contracts to free agents, such as Durant and Irving, this summer.
