I don't think you have very main brain cells if you're trying to insinuate that Zion is going to add "serious muscle" and somehow lose weight when gets to the NBA. That's not how that works.

I don't think that what he's saying. He's saying people frequently gain muscle in their 20's and if Zion does that with his current body composition, it could easily be bad news.

He's then saying Zion should try to drop to 265 and maintain that with the best possible body composition because this is a weight that will maximize his ability and minimize wear and tear and the chance of serious injury.

If that's what he was saying I would agree. Zion doesn't need to get stronger. Easily stronger 99% of the NBA already. Not sure it really makes him that much more injury prone but I could see how his athleticism might start getting hampered if he puts on more muscle. I don't buy the argument that he will be an even better athlete or less injury prone if he was at 265. 285 seems to be the proper weight for him.
