Zion Williamson looking jacked already

[Patrick Chewing]

This kid already looks bigger than Lebron. People have compared this kid to Charles Barkley. LOL I think not.

I heard he was 270lbs?

Probably should lean down. 250lbs would be good for him. He'd still be an absolute wrecking ball at SF.
Seems to be a bit more injury prone than Bron too.

I remember watching that high school documentary on Bron, and even then, he was training the right way. Almost entire focus was on hips and core. Extremely important in injury prevention, and I've never seen anyone as rigorous as him and his team on focusing on it. Zion should take some notes out of his book.

Those tree trunks making his duke practice jumps look like volleyball spandex :eek:


Rock'n dem Lebron's too, Klutch Sports written all over him :applause:

[Meticode]

Interesting...buff.

[JohnnySic]

Just think, the Celtics might be able to draft this guy with the Sacramento pick. :dancin

[Thorpesaurous]

He should be playing Defensive End somewhere. I'm still not sure how he fits moving up the chain as a basketball player.

[OG LeeTSkeeT]

athletic freak but i don't see him being anything close to the hype with no post game, jumpshot or anything. he won't be able to bully anyone like in HS. only see him effective in transition or fast break.

[k0kakw0rld]

He is overrated.

R.J. is the best player out of that class. Cam is also a monster

Duke all day :applause: :bowdown:

Of course he is. That's why he was the one winning MVP at all these camps they went to.

The only comparable thing with Lebron and Zion is they at 17 could bully grown ass NBA men.

Lebron was big but also just lean. 6'7 235-240 pounds.

Zion is probably more like 6'5 and 270 (285 is hyperbole) with a little more baby fat on him.

His frame is large so I think you see him in NBA weighing at 250-255. He works on that 3 ball and he could be a legit SF. Right now he's a tweener.

RJ Barrett is going to be sick in college basketball.

He's going to look sick in a Cavs uni.

Yeah LeBron drops $1.5 million a year on training, health, fitness. I remember reading somewhere that Oladipo learned a lot about how important it was to drop money on that type of stuff like Wade/LeBron did. Once he did, his game escalated to superstar level arguably. He's kept the Pacers relevant since those legit #2/#3 seed teams in the early 2010s with Roy Hibbert/Paul George and company.

I still think Zion is a bit overhyped. I know I will get flake for this but wasn't Anthony Bennett also an athletic undersized big? However, if he does somehow become a Charles Barkley type of player I would be shocked. I think Draymond Green is a fair NBA ceiling.

Zion is a hundred times more athletic than Anthony Bennett

Bennett wasn't even in the same universe as Zion in terms of athleticism.
There were questions about Bennett's drive in college, Zion hustles his ass off on every play (he actually cares about basketball).

And Draymond Green is still an amazing comparison. Green will probably end up in the HOF when it is all said and done.

[Patrick Chewing]

I'm convinced that people who are still not convinced on Zion Williamson's athleticism and abilities just haven't seen him play yet.

It will be fun watching a 29 year old Zion shit on a 25 year old LeBron James Jr.

:applause:
