Still a newbie in the league, Zion Williamson is a quality forward. The #1 for the Pelicans, he featured in 61 outings for the franchise last year. There is no doubt that Zion was always a built powerhouse. However, he has added on some weight as compared to last year. In fact, he averaged 27 points in 2020-21, and ranked among the best forwards in the NBA. But due to his fitness concerns and niggles, he hasn’t been able to add some crucial minutes to his statistics this time around. Can he turn things around for a successful season?
