this might help you out....
even though its for the RPi3, the Pi Zero has the same GPIO
http://hardware-libre.fr/2015/07/review ... h-rpi-lcd/
https://www.electronicshub.org/setup-to ... pberry-pi/
it has diagrams, and a list of the GPIO that might/will be used by the screen....
the screen is only really going to be using the SPI/LCD parts of the GPIO (unless you want to add the touch functions)....

I make a diagram :
if I understand correctly... i must use the "SPI" and "LCD" parts.
if I follow the indications, i use the : 15, 19, 21, 3 and 24 ? It's that ?
And i wire the 2 (or 4) for the power (5V) and the 6 (or 9,14,20,25) for the ground.
I'm good or am I forgetting something?
Big thanks
