Pop mind game backfired.
Regardless, the kid is going to be a problem for a long time.
Zion looked extremely bad on defense. They were dribbling past him without any issues for uncontested layups. He looks very slow and clearly the injury is not over yet. The 3s were impressive but one wonders if that can keep up and whether he can stay injury free in the NBA. When he is on top and not injured its clear he can dominate in the paint and be impact player. There are huge risks with this pick, but potentially a huge reward.
