Not a question of physical fitness...it's a question of mental fortitude.

He spent a full season with the Heat, he just put the Miami staff on mute?
a lot of his excess weight came when he was injured. I would imagine while he's rehabbing and the president of the team responsible for trade says he wants you in better shape you comply or risk getting shipped off in a package deal.

He did it before in 2016 after the humiliating Washington series. Hopefully he does it again.

That was half a decade ago, NBA players don't age well. Also that picture was taken before he discovered the power of gravy.
