The Magic have promising young pieces in Aaron Gordon, Jonathan Isaac and Mohamed Bamba, but none compare in magnitude to Zion Williamson. In a tier of his own, Zion is the clear-cut No. 1 prospect in the 2019 class. He could give Orlando a much-needed facelift.
At 6-foot-7, 285 pounds, Williamson combines athleticism, power and finesse in a wholly unique manner. He makes tight moves in traffic, boasts excellent footwork and can explode to the rim at any given time. He’s also a tank in transition, bowling through defenders and often finishing with highlight dunks.
It’s not just athleticism and dunks for Zion, though. He’s also skilled, with excellent instincts on the offensive end. He makes high-level passes on the regular, using his size to see over defenders and using his gravity to generate passing lanes. He’s a special talent and, barring injury, shouldn’t drop further than this.
