I understand the instinct, but not every funny knee angle is a problem.It's clickbaity bro science, nothing else. Same as Dennis' "landing mechanics". The same goes for Zion.
Knee valgus is about the normal alignment in the knee, and is most evident in standing or normal walking. Watch the videos of KP walking vs Zion walking, and it's very different. But presenting knee bend in a trained shooting motion as evidence of knee valgus is IMO fake news. If only there was a good example of a 7-foot hall-of-fame shooter with a long, healthy career that young Dallas player like KP might be taught to emulate.
Some random dude on yt made a video and now all non-New Orleans fans go crazy over it so they can say their teams "dodged a bullet".
