NBA Fans Lose Their Mind as Latest Zion Williamson Picture Shows Insane Weight Gain

Over the past few weeks, the images of Pelicans star Zion Williamson have left fans dumbfounded. Shockingly, the 21-year-old has gained a lot of weight. According to the official records, the youngster currently weighs 284 lb. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to see Williamson in action this year. This is especially concerning because he had such a phenomenal season last time around. And in a recent NBA game, his images have made fans go bonkers.

Still a newbie in the league, Zion Williamson is a quality forward. The #1 for the Pelicans, he featured in 61 outings for the franchise last year. There is no doubt that Zion was always a built powerhouse. However, he has added on some weight as compared to last year. In fact, he averaged 27 points in 2020-21, and ranked among the best forwards in the NBA. But due to his fitness concerns and niggles, he hasn’t been able to add some crucial minutes to his statistics this time around. Can he turn things around for a successful season?
