Zion Williamson Knee Vigil

Worst Nightmare

That shoe was tampered with

It sucks that these threads are so inevitable.

Most importantly, for the sake of Zion’s career, I hope this is something he can recover from by draft night.

It was sabotage! because it's a shoe, get it? It's French...I'll show myself out now.

I wasn't a Nike was it?

My disappointment is immeasurable and my year is ruined.

Even if it's minor, is it enough to scare him into taking the rest of the year off? Like college football players who skip their bowl games.

The guy is probably gonna have $100 million endorsement deals thrown at him the second the NCAA season ends, albeit maybe not from Nike now. How much is playing in the NCAA tournament really worth to him?

Ugh! Let's hope for a sprain and not any torn ligaments. Him grabbing the back of the knee and not the inside (with the angle it had pressure on it) gives me hope. If he's out long term our title hopes go down considerably.

I still think we win tonight though. And if Zion is healthy soon, this will just make us better.

I hope he isnt injured to bad .young mans a special player

[COYS]

Not exaggerating even a little. I don’t care what the score is tonight. I just want to see good news in this thread. Mostly for zion’s sake. Also for the team. And a little for the fans who should be getting to watch him on the biggest stage.

In the absolute best case scenario, Williamson is missing a big game he really, really wanted to be a part of - and he and his family have had a huge scare. I don't care to even guess on worse scenarios. Hopefully, out of respect for Williamson we can avoid puns and jokes at least until more is known.

Is duke a top-20 team without Zion?

So hard to know what this team will be- he is out tonight and the kids are kids and their heads are somewhere else. Not a night to judge what the team can be. But always hard to lose the best player in the country

Some optimism from Twitter's top sports medicine doc.

He’s speculating the same amount that we are. This is nothing.

Well, he's an expert on the subject, and we're not. He's generally pretty accurate. He acknowledges it's not the same as physically examining the patient but he can examine the mechanism of injury and make an educated guess.

Impossible situation. Shoes? Floor?

Is it too late to short Nike stock?

[J4Kop99]

It will be interesting to hear what updates are given after the game. If any.

-as for Zion, you just have to feel horrible for him. He is a phenomenal talent with as bright a future as possible but aside from that he seems like a genuinely good person. You just have to hope it's nothing too serious for him.

Yes but they need prep time to adjust .and some bench play.have to get 20 points from bench.
