How the frick is it easier to see a picture of bigfoot then Zion? You would think someone out in public would have snapped a picture of him in the last 2 months.
This is Nike's headquarters. It's sprawling and all of the entrances look gated.
I believe Zion is working out in the white building behind the end zone on the football field in the top left corner, the Bo Jackson Fitness Center. I don't know if Zion would be living on campus or in the city, but with the guarded exits it'd be pretty easy for him go from building to car to fancy apartment with a doorman and parking garage without ever being in the public view.
The better question might be how did Jake possibly see a picture but not TMZ? My guess is whoever took the picture didn't want to lose their job at Nike. Showing it to someone they have a relationship with (Jordan Schultz?) is different than selling it to the tabloids.

I'd be willing to bet Jake didn't see a picture himself, that someone "he trusts" saw it and reported to him.

“Anecdotally” Zion has lost a good bit of weight
Posted on 2/11/22 at 1:02 pm to 3PieceSpicy
I feel like we've heard "Zion has lost weight" reports like 4 times already in his career and in previous instances when we finally get to see him, he looks the same as before and in some cases, fatter.
I'll wait and see before buying into it. The bloggers/media have cried wolf too many times.

This is where im at and if he isnt back by ASB he just needs to not be in this year.

Is Zion the whale floating in that Lake?

If the reports are true, he got pretty darn heavy, so it's possible that he did lose a bunch of weight but will return looking like he did last year. And while that may not be 100% ideal, it's more than fine IMO.

Let's break in. Who's with me?

This is honestly the best guess. He’s probably not going to look like Duke Zion but more like what we have seen when he plays regularly. Not a gigantic fat tub of lard arse, not absolutely shredded either.
Hopefully

If he just comes back at 285, I would be happy

Him looking like he did at the end of last season when he gets back would be a huge disappointment.

Thank you. He's been living in a training lab for months, with no end in sight. For him to come back slightly less out of shape than when he left would be a joke.
Do people not get how much you could transform your body if thats all you had to do for months?
If he doesn't come back looking transformed, then he was up there bullshiting.

Could be - but I would guess Zion is working out in the newly opened Michael Krzyzewski Fitness Center on other end of the Nike campus.

Why are you acting like Zion went up there just to lose weight, dude has a broken foot that was not healing. A lot of his time up there is focused on getting that right first.
Posted on 2/11/22 at 2:39 pm to WaltWhite504
If Chris Pratt, an actor, can go from fat to ripped by training for a few months, you would think an elite athlete could do even better.
Posted on 2/11/22 at 2:51 pm to saints5021
Maybe the doctors told him he couldn't play on his foot at 300lbs and if he wanted to ever play again he needed to drop some weight? Maybe that is the focus of the Nike campus? Maybe his foot is healed up by now and he is working on playing weight.
I don't know if any of this is true but it would be nice to know. I guarantee Griff would never want to say Zion can't play at 300lbs and he needs to lose weight to come back.

There have been a lot of reports/murmurs that this whole thing, especially the amount of ridicule he got nationally, has really caused him to take it all to heart and caused a change within him.
If that didn't do it, nothing will.
Zion got huge.
