Zion Williamson hasn't played an NBA game yet was ranked 42nd on ESPN'S top 100 player's list while Klay Thompson a 5 times All-star and 3-time NBA champion then ranked 49th on ESPN'S top 100 players list. Klay Thompson is arguably the 2nd best 2-way player in the league after Kawhi Leonard and is one of the deadliest snipers in the history of basketball. Klay deserves to be recognize more than this rookie who hasn’t proved his worth in the elite NBA league. Zion Williamson, honestly shouldn’t even be in the top 100 he hasn’t played one game. We all know he can dunk what else can he do. With his style of play he'll be on IR more than on the floor. He has flash and potential but I don't see him taking over a game in the 4th any time soon. ESPN is just hyping this kids career up for failure at this point. Hopefully the media stops giving hype to players like Zion, they just add up to the pressure and might add the possible blame when Zion isn’t able to meet the expectations of the fans and the basketball world.

That's insane. I think the media also considered the Social Media hypeness. Klay is just very silent though he should be credited with the titles of Golden State.

Indeed, I’m worried about Zion, I just hope he meets the expectation of the fans. And hopefully he will stay healthy as he starts his career in the NBA, so that he can prove himself. NBA is way different than NCAA.
