Jerry West在Dan Patrick Show表示：「我不知道有什麼原因令你不在第一順位選下他！我認為他就是當年的Michael Jordan！」

"I don't know how you could pass Zion Williamson [at No. 1.] ..." he said, per Andrew Perloff of the Dan Patrick Show. "That would be like passing on Michael Jordan in the draft, I think."

18歲的Zion Williamson在很大程度上被認為是最佳新秀，被大多數選秀專家認為是選秀中的頂級人才。

4月初，Athletic的Sam Vecenie ，B / R的Jonathan Wasserman，CBS Sports的Gary Parrish，USA Today的Jeff Zillgitt以及SI.com的Jeremy Woo都在他們的模擬選秀中以第一順位選Zion Williamson。

引用Woo寫道：「他有機會在NBA中成為一名獨一無二的天才球員，雖然他有明顯的不足，但如果Zion Williamson能夠繼續增加他的技術水平並加強他的跳投，那麼對他來說就有一個天般高的天花板。 他只是被有史以來最具統治力的大學聯賽蓋過風氣。在個人的選秀大會中，任何一隊都會樂於重新定位他們圍繞Zion Williamson重建。」
Woo wrote: "He has a chance to be a uniquely gifted star at the NBA level, and although there will be obstacles for him to clear, if Williamson can continue adding to his skill set and refining his jumper, there’s a sky-high ceiling for him. He just put together one of the most dominant college seasons ever, and throwing out all the hyperbole, whoever wins the lottery will be happy to reorient their rebuild around him."

Zion Williamson在杜克大學的單賽季場均得到22.6分，8.9個籃板，2.1次搶斷，2.1次助攻和1.8次蓋帽，投籃命中率達到68％。
