DeMarcus Cousins’ blunt advice for Zion: 'College is [expletive]'


Duke Blue Devils superstar Zion Williamson is the overwhelming favorite to be selected with the first overall pick in the 2019 NBA draft and sign massive contracts in a few months' time, and after a freak shoe blowout in Wednesday's Duke-UNC game led to a knee injury, many players, fans and analysts are urging Williamson to protect himself by sitting out the rest of the year.

Williamson suffered a "mild knee sprain" according to coach Mike Krzyzewski, but his potential timetable for a return is unknown. On Thursday, Warriors star DeMarcus Cousins advised Williamson to make the right choice for his future - which means walking away from his teammates.
