Zion Williamson's health remains a concern for Pelicans fans. Recent reports suggest the 2019-year-old pick-and-roll weighs more than 300 pounds, making him the heaviest player in the league.
Pelican officials have announced that Zion's right foot is in constant pain and that his fifth metatarsal bone has regressed in healing. As a result, the amount and intensity of his training will be forced to decrease over a long period of time to help his bones heal. Zion's weight has seriously affected his career.
Recently, the famous Skip broke the news of Zion's eating habits in his own show. He said Zion wasn't as heavy as rumors were, but he had strange eating habits that didn't help his health or career.
Skip said: "I heard that he weighed not 330 pounds, but about 310 pounds, and that's still a big problem. The good news is that the Pelicans just hired a coach from Louisiana State University, and I've heard he's great. The bad news is that Zion still likes to eat an entire pizza on a high-sugar drink. ”
Seeing this, we seem to understand why Zion is out of shape and frequently injured. Zion has changed dramatically since entering the league two years ago. Zion's foot injury has kept him out since last season and Zion seems to have been dealing with food issues.
Zion had hoped to become a superstar in the league, and he was able to deliver 22.5 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists in his rookie season. In the second year of his career, Zion was already an All-Star. But his health has affected his professional achievements, and setbacks he suffered during his recovery have only made things worse.
Zion is only 21 years old, and he had a bright future in the NBA. But because of frequent injuries and physical well-being, Zion has been labeled "unprofessional." For Zion, the first step in regaining his image in the hearts of fans is to control his weight and quit those bad habits!
