Sure former South Carolina basketball great Alex English was known far more for his offense than defense in a Hall of Fame NBA career.
But defense is what English is talking up when pitching South Carolina to five-star recruit Zion Williamson.
English tweeted a thought that Frank Martin’s brand of defense would be good preparation for Williamson, who will likely be a one-and-done as the No. 3 player in his class in the 247 Composite.
One most important things for Zion Williamson to consider if he's expecting to be a one and done is that there is no college coach in the country that's going to prepare him for how to play tough NBA defense than USC's @FrankMartin_SC
