Krysten Peek has been covering high school and grassroots basketball for the past seven years for Rivals.com. In this series, she takes us back to when some of the NBA’s biggest stars were just getting started in high school.
Zion Williamson hit the scene in high school with his crazy dunks and athleticism. Drake wore his high school jersey to one of his shows, and Williamson seemingly went from high school star to celebrity overnight.
I first saw Williamson as a sophomore at the NBPA Top 100 Camp during the spring of 2016.
