I have been thinking about the future of the league lately. A lot of the guys we’ve been enjoying the last decade and a half are going to be retiring before too long.
So then naturally, I began thinking about how this newest batch of young players is really exciting and I really would like to hear the community’s take on, specifically, who they would take Zion or Wemby (assuming health) and why? Or is there someone else you would choose first? I just really find the Zion and Wemby comparison interesting.
Thoughts?
It really isn’t crazy to take one over the other and this is coming from someone who hates these cop out answers. Zion year 2 was like 27/7 and unstoppable plus he was running the offense as the point guard on occasion over the last few years. If you can guarantee me he stays healthy he can easily be a 30 ppg scorer and turn into a great defender.
Wemby though has shown he can do everything. The defensive upside is high and he can also be a great scorer. I would slightly lean Wemby but they’re really neck and neck assuming they both stay healthy for the rest of their careers
