Why 5-star Zion Williamson would fit better at Clemson than Kansas, Duke or Kentucky

The nation's No. 3 player will commit Saturday and here's his impact on each of his finalists

• by Kyle Boone
  
  The nation's top uncommitted prospect, Zion Williamson, will end his long and winding recruitment process on Saturday.
  
  The five-star forward from Spartanburg Day School in South Carolina, ranked as the No. 3 overall player in the Class of 2018, will pick his college destination between Clemson, Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and South Carolina.

• So what school will it be for Mr. Highlight Reel himself? The in-state Clemson Tigers lead the way in the 247Sports Crystal Ball as the clock ticks closer to midnight. But he's remained firm in the fact that he is still undecided, and genuinely torn, between his finalists on the decision.

  KENTUCKY
  A Kentucky commitment for Williamson would give the Wildcats their lone commitment from a player who is not a listed guard.
  
  Unlike your typical John Calipari recruiting class, this class may not be required to replace the starting five. Freshman Kevin Knox is probably a lottery pick, and if I were betting I'd say the same might be true for Hamidou Diallo -- both players who he would likely split time with if they stayed.
  
  The book might still be out on P.J. Washington, Wenyen Gabriel, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and some of the other Kentucky talents who could easily return next season. And with no clarity on if a big bunch are staying or going, my money would be that the logjam of uncertainty at his future position pushes Williamson elsewhere.

Not worth the click for the guy if the rest is as inaccurate as what you have here

I stopped reading when he said Diallo was a lotto pick. Told me all I needed to know about this fool’s UK IQ.

Diallo is a lotto pick? Wow. For who? Why? Based on what?

Diallo is trying to play his way into a lottery pick of the G league draft. I named my kidney stone Hami because the damn thing just won’t pass

Yeah it wouldn't surprise if diallo did return he has a lot to work on. Had he left and was drafted in the first round, he would be in the g league there is no doubt in my mind. He extremely versatile, and he has the tools but he needs to be more consistent. If he works on all of that and improves through the season he could be late first round at best but we all know he has zero intentions of coming back which is sad because if he did he could be a lottery pick in 2019

He was referring to the Lithuanian draft.

I read the article. Guy is an idiot. Totally mis-informed. Not worth the read.

Diallo has been exposed just like Cal said he can't hide you. He (Diallo) makes too many turnovers, poor shot selection, doesn't shoot well, showing that he is hard to coach, low basketball IQ . Kid is a freak athlete but takes more than that for NBA. Not sure coming back helped his draft status. Just start counting other players having great yrs and you get to 20 pretty quick. 2nd round pick if that IMO.

Zion Williamson will be a perfect fit for the 2018-2019 UK Wildcat team. Hope he chooses the Cats...GBB!

Now, that's a classic comment right there, love it!!!

Wow maybe the first time a national sports writer actually wrote an article tryin to sway a kid away from UK. Lets be real JV is gone Diallo is gone Knox and SGA as well. That leaves us with one wing style forward.

Now one thing just watched Zion play he does not play Pf in hs. Hell he ran the point some much quicker than a 270kid should be tight handles saw him behind the back and break a dudes ankles in the lane. The kid plays as much as he wants no matter what school. His best bud is coming here. He will get to hang with Drake here. Just think he is a cat and probably has been for a while.
