- Zion Williamson has been criticized by NBA media for being fat. His poor conditioning has raised questions around New Orleans on whether or not he is truly committed to being the cornerstone franchise player the Pelicans need him to be.

Clearly basketball isn’t his passion. He’s made millions already and is just coasting. Not everyone wants to win a ring.
Yep
True but he better do that out the league
Down the road He’s going to end up bankrupt and hugely overweight. Hopefully he proves me wrong.
Dude is on a whole other level of 'Load Management'.... 24/7/365
yeah he dropped 36 on Wolves he doesn't love basketball ok bro you're an expert by making this statement.
"He'll eat the table" on national TV is crazy
Ayoooooo🤣
When your job is to stay in shape and take care of your health, you have no excuse for being overweight.
Maybe try Hypnosis?
and making such an awesome living doing it. Seems like there's something wrong upstairs with him.
Exactly
Idk, this generation is behind..they seem to lack common sense and have no discipline..they don't have that killer instinct or heart that the older generation had..pay me millions to stay in shape??? Where do I sign up..I've been working out over 25 years straight for free...lol😅😂
@@LOGICAL-JAYFucking nonsense. The majority of older people, particularly boomers, are lazier and more entitled than anyone that's ever lived. Get real.
I lived in New Orleans for 16 years. You can't sling a dead cat without hitting a great place to eat. The food is incredible and there is plenty of it. Zion obviously has a food addiction but isn't motivated to invest in getting past it. Maybe he is satisfied with the millions he has made and doesn't want to put in the work required to live up to his potential. It's a shame because the Pelicans deserve a better return on their substantial investment.
"You can't sling a dead cat without hitting a great place to eat. " LOL that is a wild statement but completely believable
I can think of millions of reasons for him to exercise some portion control.
He can still eat delicious foods within reason and stay fit . At his height.
Bodybuilders eat a lot but they are also short. He could eat 2000-2500 calories a day easy with nutritious food.
No cakes and sweets.
The money he has will finish if he keeps spending it on hoes, strippers and illegitimate children 🧐.
Watch rich Paul’s - why athletes cannot afford to hire and fly in private planes! 🧐
+ Junk food and toilet paper!
@@poorpinoyvlogsthat’s the most down South expression I’ve ever heard 😂
It's infuriating to see someone like Zion so talented just waste away his abilities. He's not in his prime yet and I hope he gets it together before it's too late.
he won't have a prime if he doesn't take care of his body. or it will be very short
It's over dude the hype train finally has stopped
Who cares lol let him do what he wants
You acting like it's your talent. Let the man do what he wants. If he wants to have the Shaq Munchie mentality instead of the Kobe Mentality, that's his choice 😂
It’s already too late. He’s done.
That’s the difference between a guy like Giannis and Zion, both vastly talented and physically dominant.. but what separates them is Giannis’ mentality and drive to be the best, Giannis knows what’s like to be at rock bottom and make it to the top, that’s why he works the way he does, his success is a testament to his work ethic.. Zion just doesn’t want it enough, he’s perfectly content eating seafood and sleeping with porn stars while his team just stagnates in mediocrity
🤢That is too sick!🤮
Zion is more naturally talented
@@MrDiMES123 yeah he’s also fat
@@MrDiMES123 which makes it even worse
@@henriquevgfthat’s true. Giannis had less natural talent and achieved more. That makes it even worse for Zion. He had an advantage and squandered it.
Bro's talking "it's hard to diet" at like 23 years old BRO THEYRE PAYING YOU A MAX CONTRACT GET IN THE GYM! HIT THE TREADMILL!!
Exactly. it only gets harder as you age. If you can't get in shape at 23 with MAX deal, then nobody can motivate you to do it. pride as a professional should be enough.
"i'm hungry all the time "
He can also afford a good personal chef to cook every snack/meal to be healthy and tasty
@@michealholden2888fr
@@michealholden2888tf you talking about? Worrying about taste? That’s some weak mindset. The same mindset of why he didn’t play in those playoffs.
Its frustrating for all the millions of people that wish they could play in the nba to see someone who does and doesn't appreciate it at all
Those millions of people aren’t talented enough to be in the nba , that’s why he’s there and they’re not.
@@CANCELMEE of course
Ben Simmons has entered the chat
@@CANCELMEE no shit. that's all the more reason to be frustrated. a dude getting a gift from god and not giving a fuck is extremely frustrating to watch.
@@paranoia_xo since you’re frustrated how about you train yourself to get there instead of complaining about it.
Bro Zion is gasping for air just talking this is foul
The walls are closing in!🙄He can't breathe!😮💨
He's like Stevie from Malcom in the Middle
Ayoooooo🤣
Was looking for this comment. It's crazy to see him gasping for air just sitting there. He really needs to get rid of some weight now 😂
@@MoralesCornerOr he needs to drink some Yogi tea to breathe more, it helps to get that energy back, lungs are important step of the body.🍵🧐
He reminds me a lot of Eddie Lacy. He shows a ton of potential, but he just cannot stop eating. Ultimately, guys like that are just happy to be wealthy, getting laid, taking care of their families, etc. and the championship might not be a big deal to them.
Steve Smith😂
Lacy got overweight because of his injury debatably though. Zion came into the league more like this and has just gone down hill since
This is why I cant watch the NBA
If I was them I would he’s better off then 98% of the population
why?@@jamesdelaney3797
Dude makes tens of millions of dollars i dont want hear how hard it is. Dude just needs to eat less food. The rest of us work our asses off to be able to afford food.
He has the best trainers and chefs in the world but won’t listen to them 😂 it’s not like he has to be vegan either
I've never seen a dude sweat and out of breath at a press conference just from speaking.
💯
@@kimchi2780 If all I had to do was play basketball and train and diet while getting paid millions, you definitely wouldn’t have to tell me twice I would be living the dream
Amen
Zion probably needs a therapist. He has had incredible, bottom of the Mariana Trench level pressure put on him since college, and food is an easy escape. Each time he gets injured, gains weight back, can’t live up to expectations it only makes things worse. It’s hard enough to admit when you don’t feel good about yourself, much less when that gets broadcast to the whole world. So he likely feels trapped in a shitty cycle and most of the reaction he gets is anger and frustration at him, rather than empathy. No wonder he can’t stop eating
Said 100% perfectly. Everyone has their coping mechanisms. His might just be food, and noone ever takes the time to consider what he may got going on in his personal life. He's in his early 20's and yet people expect him to have it all together with all of the cameras and pressure on him like that. Wish more people can see it like you
nah its as simple as getting off your ass and working hard.
I feel like he has a sports therapist and isn't putting in the work himself from the sessions he has taken. Former drinker, male, here. Relatable. I can tell. He is happy to admit he has problems esp with another 200 mil coming his way but he doesn't actually wanna do anything about it. He just wants to talk about it.
Bro, he literally has the best nutritionist and trainers. It's his job to stay in shape and play ball. They are paying you MILLIONS.
I would feel bad for him if it weren't his laziness and lack of effort going into his body being the sole reason he's such a disappointment
it's 100% zion's fault how hard is it to be in shape when you're basically an athlete and you have a whole team dedicated by helping you out he's probably not into basketball or he doesn't like his team because he clearly is not trying how hard is it to try it while your team is helping you out by being in shape
Bro gets paid millions to hit the gym and just doesn’t
@@HK416ctbecause he’s hungry let the man eat in peace 😂😂
@@Victor-fj5hy 😭😭
because he never taste burger in his previous life , and he is sick of just watching porn in pc , so he wants them all right now
The problem is so insanely simple - he’s fat and he has to lose like forty pounds. He isn’t Shaq because Shaq was fifty pounds heavier and almost a foot taller. This is so unbelievably simple of a problem lol
He's gonna be one of the greatest 'What ifs' ever
I can see that
He’ll turn it around
He’s one of the biggest what ifs ever
Missed opportunity to say the Zion problem is getting.... um.... bigger.
Ayoooooo🤣
'He'll eat the table' quote by Stephen A make me laughed so hard, Riot comedy made a short about this and its absolutely hilarious😂😂
The worst thing that could happen to Zion's career was him getting that huge ass contract extension in 2022. Missed a whole season due to injury and still got paid.
That's part of contract
that's called salary stealer
I was a BELIEVER in Zion right up to seeing him at the very beginning of this season.
He has a very serious addiction problem..most people never get over food addiction.
Now I think maybe only some revolutionary and legal weight loss drug can change the course of his career for the better.
Meth
To bad Ozempec eats muscle fibre
No he needs to slow down on eating... Be mindful of decisions...
also his p*rnst*r addiction too (not that i can blame him TOO much..)
it's funny to me how ''food addiction'' is only a problem in america...
You can't make somebody be what you want them to be. Dude has gotten as far as he has on purely physical gifts. He doesn't WANT or NEED basketball the way a dog like MJ or Kobe did.
Ben Simmons has entered the chat
@@user-qn1zj5bs5p EXACTLY.
@@user-qn1zj5bs5p No doubt. Exact same thing. Simmons loves the lifestyle basketball affords him; he doesn't love basketball.
Simmons and Williamson both want the money but not the work.
You’re right
that sums it up right there
simmons says he got some heart broken , not that he dont want to work hard 🤣
The whole "learn how to walk" thing I think I may have an insight on. I had to get hip surgery and a big part of PT for me was realizing I wasn't actually using my glutes much as I walked which overworked my hip flexors which exacerbated some of my injuries. Looking at that man walk I do not believe he is using all the muscles
This is good insight tbh
Recently, he’s had really bad posture while he’s running too. Has his head way too far forward in front of the rest of his body. Bad posture will get you injured very easily if you’re always running/jogging.
Hmm that’s interesting
@@guaceldono7231correct, posture is everything. Even in boxing, riding motorcycles etc you have to have tour posture right
This channel has quickly entered my top 5 basketball mini-documentary/recap channels. Your videos are very well put together, keep it up!
As a fellow person who struggles with their weight, I have a lot of empathy for Zion. I don't get off on mocking him. Wishing Zion Williams good health and a great career.
Stop praising lazy people who think they can coast by without working hard, that's what you Americans love doing, handing out participation medals. He has no work ethic.
many people struggle with weight. food addiction is REAL. But pro athletes get big contracts and endorsement deals b/c of their physical performance and physique. Lebron is the oldest guy in NBA. He out hustled Zion and took over the game.
@@dogworldonline1189so fat ppl are like drug addicts,?
this is his job, if working out is all u had to do all day, i think u would be fine.
I feel the same as you man, I hope he can figure it out cause with the little we’ve seen he could be one of the greats. He should be entertaining his Giannis MVP season soon and I hope he’s not out of the league by 2027. I think something that plays a factor in this is that everyone in the media has something to say about him and we know the media especially sport media has an agenda, so for Zion I hope someone in his personal life can say to him lock In because you’re wasting your opportunities.
He's the NBA's version of Jamarcus Russell.
I actually have compassion for this young man. Clearly he is aware of the situation, and just as clearly, he is not capable of dealing with it at the moment. I think it's basically a type of mental illness. The poor guy needs help honestly.
Yea and everyone making of him what world we live in
Love your commentary man, you hella funny on the low. Great vid thank you
Learning how to walk is harder than yall think after foot surgery. Ive had two i would know
I can understand that
He's trying to get by on talent and youth alone. But it takes a lot more than that to be an elite NBA player.
Gotta love Shaq calling Jack Nicklaus, Jack Nicholson. One golfed. One looked after a haunted hotel in Colorado.
Jack Nicholson definitely had that killer look in him too 😂
Great video, I'm glad you popped up on my homepage. Subscribed.
thanks for adressing this, bro.
people keep sweeping under the rug, its ridiculous. the dude is not playing. he is in for the money, fame and everything that comes with it. u can see it in his face. dont even get me started on his body shape.
With all of these shenanigans in the NBA. The drama involving Harden, Simmons, etc... It makes me want to not be an NBA fan anymore.
Seems like the dude is depressed and eating his emotions. He obviously is a nice guy overall and tries to put on a nice persona in recent interviews, but you can tell that he's distanced himself mentally from the game. Maybe that helps him cope with the fact he hasn't achieved all that he can and has not always put himself in a position to succeed. There is no way he has not heard how much of a bust he's become and I'm sure that plays a factor in wanting to just mentally shut it all down and collect a pay check. I hope he can have some sort of breakthrough and bounce back from this and have another chance at being a great player. Tough to see a dude waste away this much potential.
He already had a legendary career at duke, got paid multiple millions as a professional player. Maybe he just doesn’t care about NBA glory.
@@BlackSheepIntuitions Valid point. I think it's also easier to not care when you're already disappointing or not living up to the hype and have been paid anyway. It's like when a little kid is playing a game and clearly wants to win, but then he loses and so he acts like he never cared about winning to begin with. Zion definitely cared about NBA glory before getting drafted because his camp was all about the bright lights of new york and the prospect being a star there even though they only had like a 25% chance of landing him. Then he didn't want to be in new orleans and has had issues ever since. I'm not saying my assessment is 100% correct, only he really knows. I'm just giving my two cents about it from the outside looking in. I hope he turns it around.
Holy shit a mature person with a nuanced take in this comment section
Editing on the intro is crazy lmaooo, good job bro
"I saw a belly"😂😂😂 yea stephen A i saw that movie too back in the day😂😂😂😂
Zion literally had bust written all over him and I said it was due to potentially Motor/work ethic and my friends didn’t get it, they just saw how he was talent wise more gifted. But work ethic >>> will beat talent when it doesn’t want to work hard
I started watching Zion his last year in college. I said THEN he was too heavy and if he didn't change his lifestyle his career would be short and plagued with injuries. At the end of this season, I think his career is halfway over...
The fact that a lot of these guys are a let down highlights how special the greats in our lifetime really were…it’s not easy to be the best every day for an entire career…
aged like milk
It’s just worrying the amount of stuff he has gone through
He has the Cop Gene. He never met a donut he didn't like.😅
Once they become a cop they get fat, not many in shape
I hit that nightly Ramen, bro hits that nightly buffet.
This is a case study that nba franchises should be more careful giving max/super max contracts to young stars who haven’t won anything seriously and haven’t bought into winning basketball. People will argue they’ll leave and join another but honestly if another team is dumb enough to sign a player like Zion for max money they deserve to suffer for the next couple of years. I think less super max deals and more high contracts with bigger performance incentives so young players like Zion, Simmons, Poole will think twice before thinking they just need to play well for contracts then mess around once they got it.
Good thing Shaq has an opinion, he was the only other guy who was as good, but also as undisciplined as Zion. And, let's be honest, as out of shape and as fat.
Strange that he has his high horse with him on the one topic he's actually qualified to talk about, besides 'how do I get born with superior genes to specifically play Basketball?'
We all remember Kobe's 'I'd have 4 more rings if he went to the gym...*.
Shaq is a 3x finals mvp. Zion can barely play 1/3 of his games.
Comparing shaq that won 3 finals mvp and a regular season mvp with a lazy fat slob that has only played in a third of the games that he was supposed to play lmao.
I actually consider Shaq to be the greatest raw talent ever in the NBA for that reason.
When he arrived in the NBA he was lean and he was fast. I remember him charging down on a fast break and it was terrifying, like a super sized Giannis. Maybe he didn't have a euro step but Shaq was so big and athletic he could bump by anyone back then except I dunno, Olajuwon and David Robinson.
The rules of the 90s encouraged bigs to bang so he decided to get stronger. And he was just so powerful, he liked it, and he had no motivation to stay slim because he was already winning championships fat. Also he wasn't just strong, his footwork in the post was actually really good.
Yeah he could have won multiple rings more if he was more motivated, but there are nba players who were absolutely devoted to being the best they could be who didn't win a single ring, nevermind Shaq's multiple rings. He could've won more sure, but I don't think it would've made him any happier.
It is what it is.
Fat Shaq was better than 99% of NBA bigs who were supposedly in much better shape. There's no contesting that. And his bones must have been steel, because even as he got more injuries from being so big, he was still efficient and reliable into the playoffs.
In contrast, never mind the rings. Fat Zion can't even stay on the court when he's supposed to be climbing into his prime.
If Zion were playing well and staying available nobody would give af about his weight, like the only one who bitched about Shaq's weight was Kobe because Kobe was one of those hyper achievers who are ultra hungry.
@@v312ym34n_is_very_mean Yeah, he was, but remember Boston. Not the sight of an top athlete, and not the sign of a man qualified to look down on others with the exact same problem.
And being ( one of ) the greatest raw talent(s) ever is something that could just as likely have been said about Zion five years back.
I'm not in the slightest mocking Shaq's achievements or his beastliness in his first years. He was him!!! But he also never did it alone, and Zion has neither Wade nor Kobe to hold him accountable.
All I'm saying is Shaq dismissing Zion this way feels like the 'recently-lost-60-pounds-guy' shouting around how disgusting it is to have a few more pounds on. Shaq can of course say what he wants, free country and he's actually earned the moral right to do so. Also, in media, they want the guys to say such things. I don't think he'd say such things to Zion's face when not on TV egged on by producers to deliver a take.
It just feels somewhat...disingenious. But, just to be absolutely clear, Shaq was the biggest force of nature the league has ever seen and earned every accolade he's been given. He was like a Giannis today, but turned up to 15 out of 10. If you hadn't had the possibility to hack-a-shaq him ( aka today's game ), he would have scored 70 points every game, demoralizing grown men in the process. I'm sure former players still awake today, soaked in sweat, having had a nightmare of having to guard him again.
As for us in the comments, it would do us well to remember that simply getting to the NBA, let alone be No1 pick, means Zion has already achieved more than we probably will in our entire lifetime. Same goes for all the guys playing there, not just the superstars.
@@TheGrandmaMoses that's disingenuous. Celtics Shaq was pretty much retired at that point. He kept in shape in his championship window. It was after his peak where he really started gaining weight.
"look like Shaq and me havin a Baby" - Charles Barkley😂
It’s more common in football that you get a guy eating himself out of a career like Kelvin Benjamin and Eddie Lacy, but it’s a shame to see it happening or such a generationally talented guy. The curse of the “next Lebron” title. It happened to Ben Simmons, Zion, and let’s hope it doesn’t happen to Wemby.
Nobody called Wemby Lebron. They called him Durant, or just “the best SINCE Lebron”. But nobody compared him to Lebron. So he doesnt have that curse.
Zion could learn from wemby and wemby from zion
U bots n ur usage of generational talent 😆
Teams need to stop giving these guys 200 million contracts. Zion and Ben S. are perfect examples of too much too soon without proving anything
Thank you
i need an AI generated Zion Williams McDonalds commercial right now!
I think it's a situation of he loved basketball was the number 1 pick made it to the big stage got his contract and realized it's not all sunshine. I think the actual workload, media etc is overwhelming him and he's just doing enough to slide by and have some financial security. I think he does love to hoop. I just think he didn't understand the level of commitment and passion the NBA is. Seems like he really enjoys basketball I just don't know if he enjoys 80 hours of a week of basketball and basketball preperation.
It was clear that a guy with that frame needed all his body to be almost muscle fibre because the knees would suffer, it happens in all sports all time, heavy guys have knee issues

Best vid to watch on the way home from basketball game
Hard to reach your ceiling when your about to break the floor
That's rich of Barkley to critisize someone for playing overweight. He's a HOFer, yes, but he could've reached even greater heights and been Top10 alltime if he kept his weight in check lol.
That thumbnail had me dyin..😆😅🤣😂☠/🧐This is what's telling the truth of what's happening to him!?😮💨
Facts great thumbnail
Just eat salads. Would you eat salads for a year for 8 million dollars?
I would be a salad eating mofo.
salads don't provide proper human nutrition tho
No chance
I say i would but after 6 months, i think id tap tf out.
"You look like you showed up to the game having just had a buffet... Not something FROM the buffet... *THE BUFFET!* Like he ate the damn table".
Oh LAWD
Cooked him 😭😂
Love how to you pronounced "Laissez Faire." I totally believe you speak French.
ur videos r so good
His genetics are playing a huge role in this, hes at a predisposition to hold on to and gain body fat quickly. The only way he could lose weight is if he's had a severe caloric deficit but he won't have any energy to play basketball at that point. Having a slow metabolism sucks
He can stop eating tons of food
@Acradus bro I can tell you from personal experience as someone who has a very slow metabolism that even eating normal amounts of food that you see other NBA players eat will make you gain significant weight very quickly. He would have to starve himself to get lean but that's not conducive to being a high level athlete who needs lots of energy to perform
@@sydguitar99then work out more
@Acradus he's already probably working out 2 to 3 hours a day, he's not super human. You clearly dont understand how biology works
I think its the food environment, food isn't the same as it was 100 years ago.. he could eat clean though. Every restaurant uses vegetable oils, chicken and pork fat isn't the same as the old days.. its the high omega-6 that hijacks metabolism. If he stopped sugary drinks(If he drinks them), lowered carbs, and ate grass fed steak cooked in butter mostly he'd be able to get back into a optimal weight.
My waist size was 99cm then hit the gym lost(14cm)went to 85cm.I then gained back sum of the weight 93cm nd back to 87cm now i'm lifting,lil bit of cardio while Zion still fat 😂.Osteoporosis runs in my family so that's gonna be my life long motivation to hit the gym consistently💪
Fascinating
Is waist size really the end all be all? I need to to start working out again myself but that seems like an odd thing to be fixated about. Couldn’t you just cut down on you’re eating and fix you’re waist size if it was a problem
@@tillitsdone I would certainly love to hear more measurements 😅
@@tbates2906 Not really being active matters.Im used to eating once a day to manage my weight(Don't really eat that much)but still gained bcoz I was not active.Sum people eat 4 tymes a day but don't gain,our bodies store fat differently so limiting sum tymes can be futile unless u exercise on caloric deficit
@@deepaknambisan3251 I gotta flex my measurement knowledge incase Zion is in the background ,maybe I might be his role model😁Dreams do come true💀🏋️♀️
Great vid, as usual. Love from Serbia.
Now i feel bad for him i struggled with weight loss my whole life. And he is the same age as me. We from different parts of world but i understand the struggles on top of that he has media to deal with a career on the line women accusing him of things its all a big pile of pressure even if it is his mistake these things can pull you down. And in time of stress he eats. It is his fault but he needs someone who could mentor him a helping hand out of all this mess and i ain't a zion fan or anything but iam sure as hell if he disciplines himself and changes his mentality he's gonna be a hell of a basketball player
Man as big athletic guy myself I'm rooting for Zion.. bro loves to eat
As long as his game backs it up no1 will make it an issue
Go Zion 💪🏽
He's a bust
I hope he gets the diet in check but one thing you can guarantee is we will be seeing this dude after he is retired at 350+ lbs
T-Mac is right tho. He doesn't look fat fat. He looks like someone bulking tons of muscle similar to a heavy boxer but he doesn't know how to stop XD
my first thought when I first saw him was that he was going to have major weight problems in the future unless he works his ass off. he was hefty at an age where almost all basketball players are their skinniest. our metabolism slows down and we fill out and gain weight as we age. i have no idea how hard he works, but i can easily believe that it's harder for him than most people to stay in basketball shape considering how he looked when he was 18....but that's life....some of us stay thin with zero effort and others struggle no matter how hard they try.
Maybe he should switch to competitive eating.
💀💀💀💀💀
That would take too much effort, he’s lazy
He just doesn’t have “it” (whatever that may be.) He just doesn’t have the drive to live up to expectation. He seems more than content where he’s at. He could retire tomorrow & live comfortably for the rest of his life. All for playing a game that comes easy to him. People should stop putting so much pressure on the guy. Obviously he’s not built for this kind of pressure & it’s likely the cause of his over-eating & lack of motivation.
13:32
The music is killing me. Stop it!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
listen. i thankfully never struggled with my weight and i'm also not an expert when it comes to fitness, but Zion has the ressources to get his body in shape.
he needs to change his habbits.
The thumbnail is fucking hilarious. 😂😂😂
He’s actually slimming down now. Last game he was in great shape.
Nothing like getting a snack and watching one of these
I love your videos !
You should do the BackStory/History of all Draymond Green's fights😂
Why? Everyone already made them
just another player who has potential to be great but clearly dont care coz he already got paid, he dont care, why shall we fans care too? (pretty sure he'll be 1 of those broke player 1 year after retire)
When did the nba start having in season tournaments ?
I don’t think is a problem. We are speaking of a player who got millions so early but doesn’t have the mentality to put up the work to be the best he can be in his craft. It’s like making it to the nba and they pay you before you even do anything. Us broke people, if we hit the jackpot tomorrow we will be acting a fool as well. 90% of our money will go towards food girls and cars.. we’ll be broke and fat with child support in less than a year.
how does one become a "former #1 pick"?
by not being a current number 1 pick.
You get your millions, and do enough to be in the league simple lol. Everybody doesn't care about a legacy.
Past as in previous
once a number one pick, always a number one pick
They paid him way too much before proving anything. Dudes been overrated since h.s.
13:00 did he just come from the training facility? I admit that I'm fat (290lbs at 6ft) and I breathe like that when I walk up to the 5th floor....
That is the funniest thumbnail I’ve ever scene
That thumbnail is crazy
It's telling the truth!🙄
Zion doesn't listen to the health staff..🤔He's on his own trying too hard to figure out his conditioning..🧐😮💨😔
Anyone notice that Shaq said Jack Nicholson instead of Jack Nicklaus?
i know he was never a nba star, but i think a video about rubio might be intereting if you are up to it. I would certainly watch it
He's a bust, he has no heart & they overpaid him.
damn, Zion
is it Father Time already?
It's burger time

5:20 Off topic, but just now realizing Richard Jefferson looks like Darth Plagueis
Aren't they on a win streak currently? Also he had like 37 the other day??
i’m a pelicans fan and it’s just insane to me that we mortgaged the organization on a guy that wants to do literally anything except train and play basketball
if only i could have his talent and gifts so that i could absolutely waste them while making millions. he has all star potential and would rather be just a semi-average starter sometimes
i just want zion to know that this year is it. this is the one season he has to prove himself or he’s done in the nba. i want him to succeed with us by god. i love this team and him as a pelican and i think he can do it but he needs to know HE DOES NOT HAVE TIME. the nba moves fast and if he doesn’t show that he can be a top tier nba player he’s out of the league in at least 2 seasons maybe less.
So if you were the Pelicans, I’m curious, what would you do?
Also, He has a 5 year contract. I doubt he’s out of the league in 2 seasons.
He's not done in the nba, this is just the new norm on how athletes are. More money they make the more security they have until the next contract year.
Saying he might be done could be accurate, I read the other day the Pels may have missed their opportunity to get tge most out of trading him. Nobody really wants him. On the other hand, he could get traded to a new team and city and totally change his attitude, but unlikely
You said so much, to say nothing.
xD they were talking about him being overweight while simultaneously showing clips of him throwing down 360 windmill dunks at 3:10
"... a weight clause that you have to be under 295 pounds"
295 pounds lol!?
I just know that incoming James Harden video is going to be 10 hours long.
Don't spoil lmfao
He's turning into the modern day Oliver Miller
Oliver Miller produced and went to an NBA finals. Miller was never called a bust.
@nerdsworthpoindexter6661 speaking strictly about the weight...not the career
Don't forget John "Hot Plate" Williams lol
you see how Zion wore a black t shirt when he went to see Gilbert arenas tryna look slimmer lol
Barkley telling him he’s out of shape is elite considering his nickname 😭
Imagine Zion but with the dawg of Pat Bev. Would be repeat MVP already
Can’t make em go if he doesn’t wanna go it’s tragic
