So I know we probably don't need another Zion thread, seeing as he is officially on the dark side now. But as much as it baffles me why he chose Duke, I think it's fair to analyze a bit what made him go to Durham.
K is on a roll, this cannot be denied. Even Cal pales in comparison to this current class. I think this is God awful for the college game in general, but what's done is done.
The thing is, RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish are already basically the same position as Zion. They are versatile players, but each is basically a 3 with flexibility at the 2 or 4. Maybe they make that work somehow, I don't know. But honest to God, dook was the last school in need of Zion. They already had the top class. So what was the motivation?
I have no idea what the pitch is from these guys right now, but whatever it is, it's working. They can basically get anyone they want and it's pretty nauseating.
I'm not in meltdown mode. I knew Zion wasn't coming here. It's just the fact that he chose those guys that makes this astounding to me. I guess I'm just trying to wrap my head around it.
