29+6. 25 of the 29 of the points came in the second half
11-13 from the field, two clutch free throws to tie the game
Zion was clutch down the stretch. And one on Zubac, multiple fouls, bucket after bucket
Zion took over when it mattered and it almost bought us a win
That second half explosion was a thing of beauty
The connection between him and JP was also a thing of beauty
It’s a shame Willie waited until the second half to finally activate him but it is what it is
Great game by Z and this was a competitive game, fun to watch

Willie waited a game and a half to activate him.
This is who Zion is 99% of the time when he’s on the court. Willie has just refuses to use him.
u/icekyuu exactly, Zion was standing in the corner until they got down 17. That’s the truth, he was barely part of the offensive structure. They were playing through Fears and Trey, and Jose off the bench. When they got way down, they started playing through Zion.
I was thinking during the game…they really are out on Zion, huh? This team is clearly being handcuffed.
I’m gonna be nit-picky, IDC. His defense was bad tonight.
He was sloppy.
