After coming back from knee surgery midseason, Williamson has immediately been one of the league's better players. For the most part, this success has been no surprise.

在接受膝盖手术归来后，锡安立即成为了联盟中最好的球员之一，很大程度上，这样的成绩并不让我们意外。

Zion is finishing 31% of the team's plays while on the court with a shot, a trip to the free throw line or a turnover -- higher than his 29% usage rate at Duke.

锡安31%的回合参与率（包括投篮、制造罚球，失误）要高于在杜克时他29%的使用率。

Second, Williamson's quickness is a massive advantage in terms of securing his own rebounds.

其次，锡安的高弹速是他拿回篮板的巨大优势。

Amazingly, he's grabbed the rebound on 29.5% of his own missed shots, a far better offensive rebound rate than any team has managed this season.

他能惊人的抓到29.5%自己没上进的篮板球，这个数字远高于本赛季任何一支球队的进攻篮板率。

Zion has the width to pin defenders on their back. The quickness to spin the other way if they get overplayed to one side. The explosiveness to get off the ground before anyone else.

锡安的宽度足以将防守人钉死（限制）在他背后。如果防守人被一侧的运球所吸引，他能迅速的转向另一侧。他强大的爆发力使他比任何人都先启动。

The hands to vacuum up any ball in the vicinity. The touch to make any shot that lands on the rim. The quick second jump to go back up again on the rare shots they do miss.

锡安有力的双手能像吸尘器一样抓住他附近任何的球。他柔和的触球能使所有球都落在篮环上。他超快的二次起跳速度能让他抢回偶尔投丢的球。

It would be one thing if all Zion could do was play bullyball. But he has a lot of finesse in his game, too. His passing numbers have been trending up.

如果锡安能做的仅仅只有打霸王球那他也就是个莽夫，但在比赛中他还展现了很多精妙的手活。他的传球数据在逐步上升。

He averaged 1.7 assists and 2.3 turnovers in his first six games and 2.8 assists and 2.5 turnovers over his past six.

前六场比赛锡安场均1.7个助攻2.3个失误，过去的六场比赛场均2.8个助攻2.5个失误。

The assist numbers should only keep growing as his teammates get more comfortable playing around him and trusting him with the ball.

就是因为队友和他更加默契、更加信任他时，他的助攻数才会增长。

Health permitting, Zion will be an MVP candidate and viewed as one of the best players in the league.

如果健康允许，锡安将会成为MVP候选人，并被视为联盟中最好的球员之一。

For that to happen, he'll have to up his impact on the defensive end of the floor.

要做到这一点，锡安必须加强自己在防守端的影响力。

His offensive upside will be dictated by the type of shooter he can become, developing into a league-average catch-and-shoot marksman will allow him to spend more time at the 4,

锡安的进攻上线取决于他能成为什么样的射手，进化成一个联盟平均水平的C&S射手将会让他更多时间充当四号位，

while making him more devastating as a small 5 in late-game situations.

最近的比赛里他作为五号位常常表现出龙卷风摧毁停车场的威力。

Part of what makes Zion intriguing in the long term is how productive he is. while still having areas to improve, such as shooting, his off-hand and fine-tuning his handle.

锡安最引人注目的地方就是他效率很高，但他仍然有需要进步的地方，比如他的投篮、弱侧手、对手感的调整。
