30 points in 28 minutes is a feat no matter what year you're in. 💪

Zion impact on the nba is already noticeable. Dont sleep. Hope he forever remains healthy

[MichaelJW]

The 2nd most important person on the Pels is the trainer. You’ve got ONE JOB! Keep that man healthy.

[ivanmamuyac]

Zion’s so good he got retired players sweating lol

I KNEW IT...
SHAQ and Charles Barkley had an affair 20 years ago, and this is the result. 😂

[cainhoy]

They're impressed because he's bullying guys in the paint & not relying on shooting THREES to score 31!!!

[malikthrillz]

Paul look like he bout to pass out lol

[miyurr]

DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IVE BEEN SAYIN THIS! 4 years now! I kept saying this! I see the personality I see the humbleness! His personality is NEEDED!

[TucoHarmonica]

If Zion can stay healthy, he could be the goat. I cheer for him. He seems like a humble young man

He literally has springs in those legs.

[fashionlife]

[Grayfire]

This kid does not know how gifted he is... humble wow

[EliteSports]

Health is the only difference between him being a HOF or a Brandon Roy type player.

[fgstech]

Here's the thing he could have scored 40+ if he wasn't taken out . He's just manhandling folks, lol

[NoErWleans]

When Paul give u props u doing something.

[mandladludlu]

Paul is right if this kid had started playing beginning of the league & helped the Pelicans go to the playoffs performing like this every night he would have been an all-star & get into the MVP conversation this kid bad

[pgpacernation]

Zion is just a beast no other way to describe him
