I'll guess that bank is Bear Stearns.
Almost a slight on the other great players already in the league imo.

We can't assume that Zion will come in being able to space the floor and hit PnP jumpers as consistently as Collins is this year - he will have to find some other ways to get his points
I think Julius Randle is a better model for how Zion will get his offense. Undersized athletic PF who can grab it and go, good ballhandler + passer in transition:

Julius Randle - 6'7.75" w/o shoes // 6'9" in shoes // 7' wingspan // 8'10" standing reach
John Collins - 6'8.25" w/o shoes // 6'9.5" in shoes // 6'11.25 wingspan // 8'10.5" standing reach
Zion - 6'4" w/o shoes // 6'7" in shoes // 6'10" wingspan // 8'7" standing reach
One is not like the others.
