Another person wrote: "Physically the guards and small fowards are taller more lean and just as strong due to advancements of work out culture and dietary culture. Meaning you playing a Jordan "type" player ever night. So if Malone can't get up and down with an he a role player like Dwight."

I get it. For an NBA player hes out of shape. But the dude is low key more muscular than anything with a little bit of fat and hes like 6ft 7 😂. I cant have fat people retweeting this in my timeline calling Zion fat. That's crazy. https://t.co/sPUQPxrD8x

prevnextReminder
The Zion Williamson weight discourse reminds me of the Ben Simmons jumpshot discourse in 2018. Use your common sense and your eyes. No, it's not tenable for these players to continue playing with the flaws they have now.

An NBA fan said: "I love Zion Williamson and really hope he gets serious about his conditioning & weight issues. Stop relying on family to manage it & get a serious nutritionist & trainer to work you out of your comfort zone. Injuries will happen more frequent if he's 300+ pounds and how he lands."
prevnextSympathy
Zion Williamson was always going to struggle with that weight in the NBA.
Gotta feel for him.

One person noted: "Zion Williamson has every tool at his disposal. There is no excuse for his ongoing weight issues. How many injuries before he figures it out? All the natural ability and money to hire people to help him meet his goals. C'mon, bruh."
prevnextApology
Sorry all the weight I'm losing is going to Zion Williamson.

A person tweeted: "I love how these Internet Doctors are on here thinking they're opinion matters. COVID-19, Zion Williamson's weight. All of them love to talk and at the same time, know absolutely nothing about they're talking about. Its laughable."
prevnextSelling the Stock
Yeah I’m selling my Zion Williamson stock. He’s a Blue Devil so I’ll always rock with him and hope for the best. But injury prone with a bad weight problem he might be cooked sooner than later. At least we confirmed he was a special talent pic.twitter.com/kFqA7tFGas
