More Debate On Zion’s Weight

We understand the concern about Zion Williamson’s weight but honestly most people really just don’t know enough about him and his body to really be able to offer much useful criticism. What if he’s just built different? Does anyone know his body fat? What if it’s single digit?

There’s so little the average person doesn’t know. Take what the New Orleans Pelicans have done: they’re focusing on retraining his body to lessen the chance of injury. Obviously they have vastly more insights into his body and health than any of us do. For the most part, we’re just well-intentioned but ignorant fans.
