It's either in the paint, or it's behind the arc for the majority of players the majority of the time. So for me, my concern isn't with Zion's mid-range, but with his actual out-side shot. And while he is not a threat from deep right now, I still stand by my statement that his shot isn't broken, and he's so young that he has plenty of time to develop that.
