Zion Williamson is one of the prominent young players in the NBA. As the 1st pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, there were a lot of expectations placed on him. Despite all the attention, Zion Williamson has been flourishing as a member of the New Orleans Pelicans. Williamson is currently averaging 26.8 PPG, 7.1 RPG, and 3.1 APG. Those are amazing statistics for a second-year player, and Zion Williamson looks like he could be a future superstar in this league.

Part of a superstar player’s success in the NBA is the position their coach plays them in. The same will be no different for Zion Williamson. Due to his combination of athleticism and strength, Zion Williamson is a unique player who can play any position on the court. However, New Orleans Pelicans coach believes that the best future position for Zion Williamson is at the PG spot handling the ball.
