Zion apparently injured his knee and is going in for further testing.

Not great for an undersized but overweight player who's elite athleticism is what sets him apart as a prospect. It also feels like this is the tenth time he's been injured since being drafted in June.

Not just the weight but his style of play (all dunking all the time) is a blown ACL waiting to happen.

He wouldn't be the first unicorn big guy to have his legs ruined by playing in Alvin Gentry's system either.

even before Gentry, Davis had injury concerns. I don't think it's the system too much.

I was talking more about how Gentry playing Boogie 45 minutes a night for a full month permanently ruined one of the most underrated players of the decade's legs. AD has only been in LA for like a month and has already hurt his thumb.

To be fair, Cousins started having his 'sore achilles' issues while he was still on the Kings. Gentry definitely put the final dagger in that in a way that D'Antoni could only admire.
