Zion Williamson Receives Apologies After Looking Much Slimmer In New Photos

Zion Williamson and his purported weight have been trending all week.

Williamson was rumored to be weighing in at  around  330 pounds, which is a pretty large number when you think about his height. This  information was reported by Tim MacMahon, and while some believed it, others called BS on the reported weight.

Zion is a large man, and if he’s not able to get in tons of cardio, he’ll probably have a tough time staying lean.

The best way for Zion to get in shape is to play, so hopefully he’ll be able to get back on the court soon.

Fingers crossed.
