In the illustrated middle-grade biography Epic Athletes: Zion Williamson, acclaimed sports journalist Dan Wetzel tells the inspirational story of the greatest basketball prospect of his generation. Following Zion Williamson’s record-breaking season at Duke University and his electric NBA debut, basketball fans are already calling him the NBA’s Crown Prince, drawing comparisons to all-time greats like Michael Jordan, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant. Now a New Orleans Pelican, he’s set out to prove that he truly deserves to be the new King of Basketball. But for all the expectations and accolades, Zion remains a humble, dedicated teammate, and a terrific role model for young basketball fans across the country. Filled with sports action and comic-style illustrations by David SanAngelo, this inspiring biography tells the story of a once-in-a-generation basketball superstar.
