After the publication that spoke of his… indifference Zion Williamson against the instructions of the Pelicans people to take care of his body and diet, he came back to the fore the Pelicans forward’s weight issue.
THE Stephen A. Smith in a slick as… graphic way he criticized the 23-year-old ace. “I’m not exaggerating at all. I report what is being said. There are chefs in New Orleans who love him and seek him out. Every chef wants to meet him. Word is that Zion will eat the whole table“, he said.
The Charles Barclay he said in a more dignified tone:He is not in good physical shape, he does not run and plays based solely on his talent. He could have been special, but we see he has two teammates playing better and he shouldn’t. This should have been the Pelicans’ top player, but it’s not even close. It has disappointed me. I don’t know if he has a teammate like I had Moses Malone who told me I was fat and lazy».
Early in the win over the Timberwolves with 121-107 Williamson had his best game of the year with 36 points and 13/17 shooting. Asked after the match to comment on what is being said about him, he replied: “If these words are coming from someone who really wants to see me do better, I thank them. But if they come from somewhere else, everyone can have their own opinion. I can’t check this“, said Zion, who is in his fourth season in the NBA, but in the first three he played in only 114 games due to injuries that came mainly from the burden on his body from the many kilos.
