(Aug 2025) Zion looks out of shape

I see some gut sticking out. And it's clear he is enjoying the partying more than being in the gym working on his game. If Pelicans fate depends on this guy they are screwed. And they gave up an unprotected 1st next year

He is such a disappointment.

I can’t judge by the picture whether he’s out of shape or not.

He’s top of my list of active players who will be broke ten years post retirement.

He is. An NBA player should never not have a 6 pack or a flat stomach (at minimum)

There are some exceptions like Boris Diaw or Batum.

He’s actually in pretty good shape and fairly lean for him. For what it’s worth. Cool thread.

Six pack is not a necessary trait for an NBA player

Yeah, Jokic blows up azcatz11 theory from the jump.

That said, Zion is out of shape. He's likely got another 30 game season incoming.

It is what it is at this point. In shape, out of shape, it really doesn't matter anymore. He's always gonna be A shape.

He's cooked as a reliable star to build around.

Unfortunately, he does look out of shape. His belly button looks like it can palm a basketball

I was more wondering why the other guy is wearing a belt but his pants are still falling down. Some basic instructions needed there.

It's not a contract year yet.

Believe it or not this one of his leanest weights compared to his 2022-2024 offseason blow ups.

Round is a shape.

He needs more of Nico in his life.
