[White LGI]

Why is their most valuable asset/face of the franchise playing so many minutes in preseason?

Good Q

[White LGI]

They played him so much because they know he needs it....to me Zion is the most over hyped player entering the NBA in a long time.....I mean he is a beast but I feel like his potential peak is being Blake Griffin....he isn't a player that you can build future title contender around...

The real question is WHY THE FUCK HASN'T SOMEONE PUT THIS KID ON A WEIGHT LOSS/FITNESS PROGRAM.....dudes 6 foot 5 280 man....Griffin is 6 foot 10 275.....Zion is entirely to fat

[Amen]

Horrible management, that’s why.

[uh-oh]

let zion be the bully he is. he loses weight he's mediocre. he stays BROLIC he continues to be the force that he is

its one thing if he's blowing out ligaments, but this injury is nothing

He's not fat, he's a physical speciman. Too agile and athletic for big guys to guard, but too big and powerful for smaller guys to guard. His height weight athleticism is what makes him a generational prospect.

280 is to much for that man to be jumping around like that with...he won't last 4 years. It's the same reason Blake stays hurt and he is 6 10 275

[White LGI]

He out 6 to 8 weeks....20 to 30 games....this nigga gonna be the new Greg oden

[Blue Bayou]

He's too damn big man

Unfortunately I think he's going to battle injuries consistently his whole career

Yea injuries that require surgery are nothing, tho right?

[Aero]

Knee surgery at 19 come on man. I’m out on Zion. Was excited about the NBA but not anymore. Nigga didn’t take care of his body and the Pelicans over playing him during preseason. They have to be okay with him playing 30 mins a game just accept that he doesn’t have the endurance.

I want him to be between 265 - 275 and have a healthy season but I’m over it.

[White LGI]

Zion is going to bust...I knew it.....ja Morant, Tyler herro and cam reddish are the stars of this rookie class

[uh-oh]

i read it was a knee sprain, but now im seeing it was a meniscus

i tore my meniscus last year, shits terrible. but its not like an actual ligament tear or anything, i didn't even get surgery lol. literally all they do is cut away the part of the meniscus that is jutting out/torn that causes the pain.

yall are acting like he blew out ligaments and shit and is done

He is going to have knee problems his whole career, go on YouTube, there's a doctor that predicted this exact injury on draft night and predicts many more
