RJ Barrett and Zion Williamson parted ways at the NBA Draft, being selected by the New York Knicks and New Orleans Pelicans, respectively. They were teammates for one season at Duke, finding on-court success, but became friends along the way.
There was the chance of them reuniting in the NBA, when the Pelicans apparently wanted to leapfrog the Knicks to No. 2 overall for Barrett. Of course, that never happened, as the Memphis Grizzlies picked Ja Morant, and New Orleans sent the No. 4 selection to the Atlanta Hawks, who took De’Andre Hunter.
What if Barrett and Williamson reunite someday down the line?
