Had to remind myself of what Zion can do when he's in shape. He was so much leaner last year (still gargantuan) and could move so much better. He was a tweener 4 who played the 3 at times, but now he's so huge the pelicans play him at center. Zion needs to become this guy again for his game and his health. All that weight is terrible for his knees

I've see some of the most explosive to do it . Dominique . Kemp . Mj . Vince . Kobe. Lebron. Blake etc . And something about this kid is on another planet . The explosion he has when he jumps it's like he blasts off the floor. His height isn't gunna mean shit because of his hops and the strength he has in his entire body . Hes solid beef from head to toe and hes gunna need it banging against the 7 footers in the league . Ppl keep bringing up the height of NBA players but he was abusing tacko fall like he wasn't even there. If he stays healthy and works on that jumper I see him as a career 20+ ppg kinda player easily and imo what sets him apart is his defense. Hes gunna be all NBA first team a handful of times and may even win dpoty a few times . Only one I've seen dunk like him really is Vince in terms of in game dunks. He doesn't have the overall dunk package Vince had but he has that tenacity and umph he had most definitely. In excited to see him play . I think him morant reddish barrett and a few others are gunna be all stars real soon

Him, Carmelo and Durant's...Melo won the chip but Zion gets the edge to me....if Barrett or Cam Reddish had showed up in a couple of games, they would've definitely won a🏆
@@jaybrown3341all of them put up impressive numbers and melo won ur right but yea its jus something about how Zion did if , it was 2-3 highlights every game and he showed up for big games , he was the complete package
Yea I’m starting to think Zion was poor in college he was tryna get out the trenches or some cause the way he was playing is crazy 😂🔥
Had to remind myself of what Zion can do when he's in shape. He was so much leaner last year (still gargantuan) and could move so much better. He was a tweener 4 who played the 3 at times, but now he's so huge the pelicans play him at center. Zion needs to become this guy again for his game and his health. All that weight is terrible for his knees
He’s looking pretty good now can’t lie. Definitely playing different but almost plays to the nba better than this style would. He’s going to be crazy
That early injury in his rookie season definitely set him back weight-wise. He was farm more lean even in the summer league.
Totally deserves the hype, he is just that talented. Charles Barkley is one hell of a comparison. And he gives 100% effort on both sides of the ball.
Can we all just appreciate that Zion got to play behind a crowd before COVID. It just makes his highlights so much better. I miss it.

I come back to this regularly lol
If Zion Williamson played volleyball......😱😱. I can only imagine...
엠엘리오찰리 bro what
With my own 2 eyes 👀… Best Player I’ve seen in a Duke Uniform
This is the definition of bigger, faster, stronger. Pure domination
You had to be there, I am so glad I watched this unfolding live. What a time to be alive, I wish Zion could get back to this shape but he still doing well in the nba
He’s 285 in college he has to be about 305 now! He was smaller , way quicker and had more energy . If he can get back down to college weight at least he’ll go another level
He needs to go under college weight
He wasn't 285 while playing. More like 275. Either way, he needs to get back to that playing weight.
1994 he was listed at 285 . I’ll Take Dukes trainers word for it my guy
hes around 245 now apparently
@@keystone6561 lmao, no he doesn't
This guys gonna be a nba champion one day. Might not ever get to the goat conversation but he's special. His skill, athletic ability, but most of all his effort....that's what sets him apart.
bro got injured and fat
@@sheluvjoeyplayin good rn before getting injured again
If I'm on a fast break and Zion the closest defender to me.. there's no way I'm puttin the ball up 😂
That 360 against Clemson was so effortless. Like he was using a trampoline.
I’ve been watching college basketball since the 70’s aside from Magic/Bird era this was the most exciting season.Never seen ANYONE with the sheer speed,power and size as Zion.
How old are you, sir?
@@collins797 126
I don't hear from the people that said this kid would not be effective against better competition in college and he will have a tough time against the pro level. Those people have been very quiet.
Best part is he doesnt even look 100 percent. He looks way faster here than in the nba
They have all disappeared. “Oh, when he faces real men in the NBA he won’t be able to get away with what he does in college”. They were so, so wrong!
@@cycleoflife565 on me they were acting like zion wasn’t bigger physically then 99% of the league at 19
@@damarkomoore5236 Exactly!! Big, quick, agile, with touch, finesse and strength/power.
Zion was at his best shape in college if he gets back to this shape the sky’s the limit
And people were still saying he needed to lose weight then haha
Mane i swear i think the injuries plus motivation is really getting to his game cuz 🤦🏾♂️
Agreed
yup he need to get to that 240-250 range and he’ll be a beast
Zion is definitely a 1%er in terms of talent!
0.1%er
@Edwin Agramonte nah... TALENT!!!!!!!
Young man is definitely gifted with somthing everyone can’t be born with
Nobody Nobody at all. That one guy back in 2017 *He's not going to be doing that at the next level*
Now he's an all star or very close
@Kayleigh Baucom I think you might be trolling. 20-21 Zion is in better shape than 19-20 Zion
Just wait until Zion achieves this level of energy and conditioning in the pros. He’s been putting up 20 and 7 without even sprinting all out in fast breaks because the Pelicans trainers aren’t letting him run as hard as he can so he doesn’t tire out too quick. Once he can run all day, watch out. Friggin’ watch out.
I was at the Eastern Michigan game. Such a joy to get to see Zion, RJ, and Cam play in person. Zion is just an absolute monster.
I see they destroyed Eastern Michigan)
he's so graceful around the basket. like his touch is so soft. that's the part of his game that reminds me most of lebron. they are both just so incredibly smooth when finishing at the rim. hopefully he'll become half the playmaker that lebron is, but man he sure can finish like him around the rim.
sunillionaire he will be better than lebron ever was. People like Zion come every so often. People like him come only like every 10 years. There will be a little wait for the next prodigy to come along. Zion is and will be the name of the nba come 5 years
sunillionaire I’m not disagreeing with you at all tho. Lebron was one of a kind as well
I don't think he'll ever match Lebron in the passing department but he's a good transition passer & he's a willing passer.
#Fact
He’s ah better finisher in the paint than lebron already , he avagerin 20 on 13 shots 😂
38 minutes of highlights, he's destined.
#Fact #Exactly
Imagine Zion in shape, bro would be averaging 30 PPG.
Damn watching this honestly hurts as a Duke fan. Bro deserved a championship
Zion is going to be a great player in the NBA as long as he stays lean.
You were right....
omfg
@@Owen_Norwood Look at him now lean, but he was still balling out when he was playing. This season Zion is back and in the best shape he's ever been in! from his standpoint at least lol. duke zion was special not gonna lie.
@@montrellactonnot no more
He is his own hype man, and rim wishes it could not be there. We are going back to 80s era..feels good. Feels real good!
7:40 Zion number 3 nba draft prospect that changed quick after a few games
That dunk at 13:19. Signature. College basketball doesn't get any better. Not since Vince at UNC.
That 360 is the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen
The most exciting college basketball player of all time.
This is one of my favorite KZhead videos. Watch it over and over. Hope this kid gets in proper shape and shows NBA fans his true game. Awesome stuff here.
People saying hes just bigher than college guys. Hes 6'6 6'7 he wasnt bigger than everyone he was just a better athlete than everyone and that wont change in the nba
Johnny Olden right and he out hustled everyone. Thats an underrated skill you could have
anybody that think he is going to flop because of his weight has never seen this kid play and just throwing shade for the sake of conversation...agility, speed, strength, IQ and he can shoot and no one can deny he can't because he showed it when necessary. Top D1 schools sending triple teams at him and he is still unstoppable smfh how dare anyone say this guy is a flop.
fucking facts watch him dominate with the NBA spacing
Everything you said is 100% facts. People hatin just for the sake of it smh. There's a reason why he's as hyped up as he is... he's a special SPECIAL talent.
I never watched so many Duke games in a season than I did when Zion was there 😳 He was box office
He is so entertaining!
If Zion can back to this size he can be top 5 in the nba fr
Honestly one of the best players I ever got to witness play college basketball
Zion at 275 was scary 😟 He was in a different gear in college ⚙️
Back when zion was in shape and played both sides of the floor.
Man... I hope next year is better for him. Im wishing him to stay healthy, physically and especially mentally.
I remember people were saying he needed to lose weight back then. Now they're wishing he went back to this weight.
@@shean991 his jr/sr yr of highschool weight was his best weight , he’s still an injury risk at even his duke weight , somewhere between his 11th grade yr and duke zion would be his best weight
4:50 #10 on emu couldn’t even hold his reaction he saw it up close 😂😂😂
I always love hearing how Flabbergasted the announcers are in the beginning of the season and then towards the end they’re just like “Yup, this is normal for the kid.”
That dunk against unc at 30:50 may have been the most insane in game dunk I’ve ever seen. Look at where he leaves.
Bro was a step and a half inside the 3 point line 😭😭😭
This kid is amazing, been watching him since high school...
Can’t wait to see Zion with fans again, he feeds off the crowds energy for sure!
wow I literally just watched 38 mins of Zion Highlights and wasn't disappointed for a second !!
I never realized how much his style of play is similar to Shaq's - especially early Shaq. Shaq was able to run the floor, pass extremely well for someone his height, out-muscle his opponents on rebounds, and physically dominate when near the rim at will.
All you hear is "ahhhhh every play from the crowd after a play, that was great highlights he is a very fun experience to watch. Congratulations on your supermax 5 year deal 🤝💯
Zion could be a top 3 player in the NBA but y'all not ready for that convo. Only 19 years old avg 27ppg 7Reb 61% FG LMao. 280 6-9 45 in vertical, strong as an ox, defense elite(you wanna go check out his chase downs?), can guard 1-5 and not even in his grown man body yet. , the most explosive athlete of this generation at his size. All he needs to do is stay in shape & cut down. OMG The League is over with. Zion for League MVP!!
Agree with everything but he’s 6’6 not 6’9 he aint lebron
Back when Duke had him on that strict diet regimentation. Greatest athlete I’ve ever seen. Now not so much. Maybe in the future
awesome video man, thanks....that season was the most dominant thing i've seen in NCAA basketball since probably c-webb or shaq.... i'm rooting for the kid...i don't know anyone who isnt.....i really hope he gets right, his weight, his personal stuff.....we want to see 15 more years of this kinda stuff...he's just gotta want it
Only person I can compare Zion to is prime Shaquille O'Neal in terms of size, strength, and explosiveness, coupled with his star quality charisma.
Yea that’s mini Shaq. Shaq if he was 6’6
Shaq and Jordan had a baby
Like a Shaq Barkley combo
Nostalgia ❤❤ Zion is a legend, such a humble, talented star, the future of NBA 🙌😃
Nobody is as quick on the inside or can jump and get in air as quick as Zion. Amazing.
Breaks my heart he won't be here in NYC playing at the Garden for my Knicks. Even more after this great video....😢😢
As a long suffering Knicks fan myself, I feel your pain buddy. Every time I watch Zion it looks like CGI. What a freak and what a player.
We will be fine. I honestly believe RJ will be a star in his own right
The Hawk 😂😂😂 don’t cry too much. I thought y’all be used to L’s by now
I just Love the mentality... Destroys anything in his path Defense/Offense!!
People said this shape was to heavy but i thought it was perfect for the nba but now he look perfect for a Dline in football
I always come back to this video man sheesh if Zion got back to this size and mobility 😮💨 good lord
He’s back
I wonder if zion would ever be back in this type of shape
He reminds me so much Sir Charles!! That ferociousness! Beast!
OK...A cross tween Chuck & Nique !
Watching this makes me miss college basketball with fans it's just not the same without them
greatest player to ever touch a basketball
Really hope he gets back to being this explosive man. It doesn’t seem like he moves like this anymore
Can't get enough of this
Zion Williamson is my favorite Player he is very good pelicans got Williamson in the draft warriors are my favorite NBA team duke is my favorite college team I loved him when he played for duke he was amazing
you never heard of punctuation marks i guess ..
Do I really care about punctuation marks no not really I can do whatever I want
4.52...look outtttttt! An all time great commentary.
Zion wanted Hawks to win the lottery him collins and trae would've been something to watch
Zion and Lonzo
Itzahk Pearlman didn’t age well
@@9doggie12 Not at all
Zion is like a cross between MJ and Lebron!! He has grace and power!!! 😎👍👏
Watching this now at a point where it’s pretty evident that Zion won’t likely ever become the player we thought he could have been is so amazing and upsetting. Had to remind myself that he really was THAT good, most exciting player I’ve ever watched; he just made everyone else look like children compared to him. Really wish he could have stayed this committed/ not lazy at the NBA level, I truly believe he could have been top 10 OAT had he =(
When he rj and cam where aggressive there was no beating this damn team
Cam could've been the X-factor...they needed him to great in the big games...he wasn't
Zion actually averaged over 23 points and over 9 rebounds if we take out his first unc game in which he only played 30 seconds
@MuggShotGaming So you really dont see how stupid your comment is?
@MuggShotGaming lol how is my point stupid? I take out a game in which he basically didnt play. Your example however was complete bs
@DoubleFailMech Are you serious? Obviously because he didnt really play that game.
@DoubleFailMech Not sure what you're not understanding here. I'm taking out a game in which he didnt play. Stats are supposed to show what a player can do. This game Zion had 0 chance to do anything. The only thing that game does is pull down his stats and make him look like less than he actually is.
@DoubleFailMech And my point is that be basically didnt play. And that stats are supposed to show what a player can do. Its not that hard to understand
I've see some of the most explosive to do it . Dominique . Kemp . Mj . Vince . Kobe. Lebron. Blake etc . And something about this kid is on another planet . The explosion he has when he jumps it's like he blasts off the floor. His height isn't gunna mean shit because of his hops and the strength he has in his entire body . Hes solid beef from head to toe and hes gunna need it banging against the 7 footers in the league . Ppl keep bringing up the height of NBA players but he was abusing tacko fall like he wasn't even there. If he stays healthy and works on that jumper I see him as a career 20+ ppg kinda player easily and imo what sets him apart is his defense. Hes gunna be all NBA first team a handful of times and may even win dpoty a few times . Only one I've seen dunk like him really is Vince in terms of in game dunks. He doesn't have the overall dunk package Vince had but he has that tenacity and umph he had most definitely. In excited to see him play . I think him morant reddish barrett and a few others are gunna be all stars real soon
Josh Romero-Burgan I agree bro this draft class is really gonna be the remake of the 03 draft in some aspects so many players destined for greatness.
this comment aged so well
He is a monster. He just need some perimeter shooting to add to his arsenal. But man...this guy is exciting to watch. I think he wil get a championship ring in the next five years.
I'm hoping to see this Zion Williamson in the nba soon. He gain some weight & its showing. Hes spring doesn't have as much explosion.
Congrats on hitting 1 mil on a video!!!
Coach k single season with this young man will go a long way Because his game is more rounded than majority of nba players
Still rewatching my boi Z
Zion will eat the whole NBA himself!
This guy will be superstar.
Will be one of the best ever …watch
March 2021, I feel the madness by watching this
everytime I see a video of 300 pound zion that probably can barely dunk I watch duke highlights
Not you acting like he don’t have bounce anymore
@@Jordan5s he for sure not jumping like this no more he’ll by the time he got to the league he wasn’t jumping like duke Zion anymore
@@greatest599 true in pre season that was duke Zion then he got hurt still was dominant then next season he averaged 27 w/o the more turnt dunks
He was one of the most dominant college players of this era 😤
Wow he's gotten a lot bigger since college. He has to be close to 300 if you look at him now compared to here
He is explosive ☄⚡🔥
Zion is amazing WOW!
I think he needs to go to NYK and play with RJ again. I’m not a knicks fan either I just saw a few plays where they had great synergy together. I think change of scenery is in order for Zion.
Bro was an absolute monster in college, sadly it didnt transfer to the NBA
wym lol bros having a very good season on a playoff contending team
0:55 When Zion consistently adds this to his pro game...game over!
Dam he is doing the same things in the NBA now
Bro was so athletic
wym? z is still one of the most athletic in the league
We all know what Zion is capable of and if you ask me you still in my mind can be one of the big names if he performs at 100% of his skill set
We all miss this Zion
Man I wish he would of played for UNC that season they would of easily won the Championship with him
