Don't see him at games, no fan pics, or nothing about him.

Outta sight outta mind, but what you guys think he is doing? In the chamber like Goku or eating his problems away?

Good riddance. Poor selection and won't be around much longer.

He was with the team when he and the team believed that he was close to returning to play.

Now, he's focused on his rehab. Good grief.

Yeah, I believe it's a combo of being focused on his rehab and the "fans" heckling about his weight.

He doesn't need to hear that kind of shite from anyone, especially knowing he's having a hard time right now not being able to play.

Absolutely. Any grief he receives is only exaserbated by the contemptuous words and actions he and his intermediaries spew toward this city's team and and its fanbase. At this point in time, he's a "superstar" in name only and undeserving of the rock star status many continue to bestow upon him. To date he has neither earned the fanbase's respect nor the $44MM contract he signed three years ago.

And to those who are rubbed wrong by my words remember, actions 'speak' louder than words everyday of the week.

Not that they’ve told us. The next step was basically to limit his weight bearing activity. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s at home off of his feet most of the time. Hopefully someone locked up the Doritos.

He had liposuction and his stomach banded. He’ll be 215 in a couple weeks

It sounds like this should have been done from the beginning. I have to think the team/Zion handlers completely screwed up his treatment plan.

Man, I hope I'm wrong but as a Cub fan he reminds me of Sammy Sosa. Says all the right things at press conferences and when fans are around but behind the scenes does just the opposite, and his teammates don't like him.

The old saying don't listen to what they say - watch what they do comes to mind.

I think folks got in his ear and told them New Orleans is the wrong place for you and he gave in to that some time last year and is working to make an exit happen as fast as he can.

Again, hope I'm wrong.

They should put him in a zero gravity bubble. Maybe he’ll play by 2023.

Everyone has talked about his weight since he was drafted. Scouts, coaches, commentators GMs, and trainers have criticized his weight from a health standpoint for basketball. He should have never gotten to year 3 at a higher weight.

#1 They didn’t say he was stuck off the foot for a long time to my knowledge.
#2 We saw him up on the foot.

So he did not seem to been off the foot for an extremely long time.

FUN FACT

In his first three years in the league, Greg Oden played in 105 games plus nine playoff games. To date, in his first three years Zion Williamson has played in 85 games.
