Famous reporter: Pelicans coach says Zion is in very good shape and shows more leadership

Today, NBA famous reporter Marc J. Spears talked about Pelicans player Zion Williamson on ESPN.

Marc J. Spears said: "The day before I went to New Orleans to fish, I had dinner with Willie Green, and he was very optimistic about Zion. He said the team was training at Loyola Marymont University and played five-on-five games. He said Zion was in very good shape, maintained a good figure, and showed more leadership.

You know, Zion played more than 30 games in his career, and only played 30 games last season. But when Zion came on, the team could win. Willie Green also said, To play Zion, he is one of the best players in the league. I don't deny that, but the problem is always 'if Zion can play'.

For me, if the Pelicans want to be special, they need a healthy Zion. If you look at their roster carefully, it will be much deeper and better than many people think, but a healthy Zion must lead them to that height."

Zion played 30 games last season, averaging 24.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists per game.
