I remember CJ putting on a little weight his SO year at LSU. He could score at will but he wasn't as explosive as his FR year. Didn't he have some sort of ankle injury? I remember his FR year when he would make back door cuts to the basket and finish on an alley oop.

CJ always had weight issues due to his medication for Tourettes. It was a constant struggle to decide whether he'd take them to help reduce ticks and add a little weight, or stop and drop weight but suffer through more ticks.
And yes...he was the best pure player I've ever seen in person...and I saw MJ and Dominique Wilkins play a regular season game at UNO back in 1984. What CJ could do offensively makes basketball today look boring and slow.

The Haldol that Jackson used to mitigate his Tourette's made him gain weight in college. Haldol is an antipsychotic medication that can cause weight gain and lethargic moods.
