It’s crazy that 99% of the nba can start the season in shape and Zion hasn’t done it 1 time in 6 seasons, despite the constant scrutiny and microscope he has been under. I’d be embarrassed to show up fat for 6 seasons in a row. He seems to take pride in it though.

He was in the best shape of his career in 20, and GREAT shape in 22. Only 23 and 24 was bad.

Matter of fact, pre season 19 he was only 5-10 pounds heavier than the Duke version. When he came back, he was already over 305. Id assume around 290 in 18 and 300 in 20.

No matter what, he's been 10+ pounds over 285 since he was drafted.

Fat slob that does not give a shite. Everybody knows it but the Pelicans and fans that are in denial.

GREAT shape in 22.


But he wasn't. He was in decent shape. He has never showed up to camp in great shape.

The guy is not a professional and doesn't take his craft seriously.

And he's still too heavy at 285. The weight is a big part of why he keeps having leg injuries.

Check my post history but glad to check in here:

Zion will never play a full NBA season and will be out of the league after 6-8 seasons.

I honestly thought he would be but repeatedly said "show me"

Well, he has

When he showed up and said out loud it would take 20 games to get in basketball shape I was done.

Dude's a bum. Its year 6. He won't ever get it together.
