    This was from the first quarter Friday night. Not doing too bad to start his career.

    He may well eventually lead the league in FG%. And dunks. 70% from the line ain't bad either seeing how often opponents foul him.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Well, you know you're legendary when you're being talked about in the same company as Austin Rivers.

    Monster game for zion tonight but a bad loss. I feel like the Pels have talent. The starting 5 is very good. Why are they unable to get wins? I don't know enough to answer that. Who is a tougher stop: zion or luka?

    36 points in 36 minutes on 14/16 shooting, that's damn efficient. Ya, they have Josh Hart and JJ Reddick off the bench and that's it. Brutal bench.

    He had some dimes out there last night against the Bucks.
    34/6/8 in 37 minutes on 15/26 from the field.
    32/7/6 in 31 minutes the night before against Detroit on 13/18 from the field.

    He is getting some TO since he has been pretty much running point for them, but that's to be expected for a 20 year old basically a rookie.
    Praying he stays healthy, really enjoy watching him play. Throwback beast of a game.

    Weird stat:

    Zion has had his shot blocked more than any other player in the league. 66 times.

    Bound to happen when you're 6'7" without great length at his volume of attempts around the rim.

    Also defended by centers pretty often and almost strictly a left hand finisher.

    I'd be interested to see how many of those he's putting back himself too. Would not be shocked if it's over 50% of them.

    His impact has been meh despite his monster numbers.

    He’s like Rodney Rodgers on steroids.

    He needs the right coach to turn him into Baby Shaq
