Michigan State coach Tom Izzo wishes he had Khalil Mack to defend Duke star Zion Williamson

Duke basketball star Zion Williamson might be the biggest name in all of sports right now as he dominates the March Madness tournament.

Michigan State coach Tom Izzo is next up to the task of trying to slow him down on Sunday, and his search for an answer brought him to the Chicago Bears.

Williamson and Mack are both physical specimen who dominate their sport in a way few others can.

The outside linebacker has plenty of size for the NFL at 6-foot-3, 252 pounds, but he would be dwarfed on the court by Williamson’s 6-foot-7, 285-pound frame.

Mack wouldn’t be able to do much against Zion on the court, but put them on a football field and Williamson wouldn’t stand a chance.

Sorry Tom Izzo, but you’re on your own Sunday.
