Zion's first 15: 24.1pts per game, 6.8rbds, 2.1asts. 59.3%FG, 41.7%3pt (0.8 per game), 64.8%FT. W/L record: 8-7
Ja's first 15: 19.1pts per game, 3.1rbds, 6.3asts. 46.7%FG, 40.6%3pt (2.1 per game), 76%FT. W/L record: 5-10
So Zion still wins in ppg, rpg, FG%, technically 3PT% although we all know the volume is way lower, and W/L record.
So I guess if we're comparing like-with-like, Zion still wins.
