Yeah, watch him in the scrimmage clip. Effortlessly elevating for alley-oops and dunks. Hefty, maybe. But I'll bet his fat ratio is vey low.

Zion and Reid Travis have been the most ripped bigs I’ve seen this year so far as far as college players

Actually, Reid Travis has bigger guns. But that won't equate on the court. You know, I know, and every damn one of those UK posters know Zion will be much more efficient on the court. Saying Travis will shut Zion down could be one the most epic side-splitters I've read in years.

My cousin, a Kentucky fan, just talked about last week how he thought Zion was fat and all he can do was dunk. Same guy that last year couldn’t believe how athletic he was and how he couldn’t wait to see him at Kentucky. Same guy that when Kentucky landed Reid Travis I told him, hey nice pick up for you guys, he had zero clue who he was. Same guy that when this pic of Zion came out Monday I showed it to him and he said, Reid Travis was gonna shut him down. He wasn’t as physically gifted as Reid Travis...

Can’t make this stuff up. Good ole Kentucky fans man..

I keep up with any free site that talks basketball. I’m a fan of college basketball over any particular school but huge fan of Calipari (since Umass days) and Zion (since the end of his freshman year in H.S when he was a 6’3 190 pound guard)


Someone’s been keeping up with Rafters... ;)

His best feature, he doesn't really think when he goes to the basket, it's all just natural movement and adjustment and he finishes nice almost every time.

Not just because he's ours, the guy could easily end up the most FUN college player to watch ever. Excitement drips from this kids pores, lol.

Agree 100%. I've said a couple times he reminds me of my all time favorite player.....Dominique Wilkins...the human highlight film!!!! We may never see some of the highlights in Cameron again that he is going to give us.

There are posters waiting to be made when Zion takes the floor. Travis might want to stay away from Zion if he bolts into the lane. Zion will hand it to Reid.

Yep, he recruited my older brother and when he came over for a in home visit I became a fan. Second best in home visit behind Jim Valvano who’s in home visit was the best I’ve ever experienced by far including when I got older and went on visits


A calipari fan at umass?? Lmao

When have you seen more athletic players destroy Reid or guard him? It’s understandable to think that if you’ve never watched Stanford but anyone that has watched knows he’s a big problem. Ayton struggles with him and his y’all and athletic. I think both struggle to guard each other especially since Zion has to deal with him PJ Washington and EJ Montgomery

I like Reid Travis, but I think he has like a 6 inch vertical jump....Zion will destroy him.

*** hurt UK fan on a Duke board....priceless. Yes I've watched more than a few Stanford games since I live in SoCal 40% of the time (ouch). He has little lift, and he hasn't faced someone with Zions build AND athleticism. Ayton is about the only claim to fame for Reid given the "monster" conference he was in, and funny how you leave out Aytons "motor". Shocking.


Washington is a good player, but Montgomery? Lol, he's average at this point. Oh yea and I guess you forgot Bolden, Barrett, Cam, White, Jav, and Vrank. Whoops.

What is really sad is that Phat is what, 25 years ago?! So, 500hp, that makes you too old, or, too young. You choose bro, I'm not gonna call you out. In the end, it pretty much meant anything that was hot/awesome regardless of gender. I think Zion more than qualifies.

Zion is your guy's best player and shooter, have watched him since he was a sophomore in high school.. I agree with Jakari, Zion or Reid either one will shut the other down, like numerous posters here said, Zion is too strong and explosive, but Travis is as big and him being a 5th year senior will also give Zion fits, Reid has been playing division 1 basketball for a long time now, he will know how to face Zion..

The rumors here in Minnesota are that Hurt would like to play with his brother Michael, who will be a junior this season for the Gophers. Here's the caveat, though....Michael Hurt will graduate next spring and be eligible for a graduate transfer. So it's possible the school landing Matthew might be asked to take on his brother, as well.

Grant Hill is the best NBA player to ever play for Duke. But I'd be willing to bet that Tatum surpasses him easily and is hands down the best ever. I see Tatum as a 8-10 year All-Star, future MVP, and a guy in the "best player in the game" discussion throughout his prime. He was the best player on an Eastern conference finals team, AS A 19 YEAR OLD, that doesn't happen.

Kyrie could also pass Grant, it will be close, Kyrie needs to stay healthy. But I think Tatum has a MUCH better chance.

Jayson Tatum is gonna be a great ambassador for the Duke program, and a guy who should really help our recruiting (like we need any help) for the next 15-20 years.

Zion has the potential to be the greatest fat player to ever play for Duke. OFC

What's your guy's definition of fat? The guy has like 5% body max..
