He was at the free-throw line with a whole second and a half left. That’s fucking crazy, and his air time. Zion is one of the craziest athletic specimens ever.
Cheeseish
I was like I can’t believe he’s gonna take the half court shot. Then he kept going
JamesWelders
He gets stronger every time someone makes fun of his weight/ eating habits.
AnEmptyKarst
He was cooking in the third, pretty sure he scored 14 (or 16), all in the paint and all absurd to watch
Even_Note_1604
always LOVE watching zion play. great to see he’s been healthy this year.
WKohdeer
I want to see the venn diagram of people that can dunk a basketball on an nba basket and people who call Zion fat.

An in shape Zion is terrifying
BlackMathNerd
Feels like I haven’t heard Zion news in a fucking minute

Bwahehe
Someone that big should not be able to move like that
trooviee
He pulled some Space Jam shit
xXChickenravioliXx
This is why I really wanted those 3rd pick for Zion rumors to be true…. And why I don’t blame Pelican fans for saying that is an awful trade for them
lil_thirdy
Oh he FLOATED
WolverineLong1430
If that’s what it takes to be considered not out of shape then I agree.

I was watching this too and thinking hes the NBA equivelant of Ali’s “Float like a butterfly, Sting like a Bee” Style

He’s a freak of nature. Charles Barkley was also „fat“ but freakishly athletic

Hey where are the people who say games in New Orleans are empty and low energy?
Ramificator24
Hes back

The body control is insane.
GUNZTHER
He finally gets back into shape and people start gaslighting like he was never fat in first place lmao he’s a 300lb pro athlete that was only about to play like 30 games the past two years because of leg injuries, of course he got fat.
Miyagisans
He just floats on and on
motorboat_mcgee
Are people saying he’s out of shape right now?

“He got me,” George said of Zions lay up over him. “That f***ing Zion boomed me.” George added, “He’s so good,” repeating it four times. George then said he wanted to add Zion to the list of players he works out with this summer.
Hankscorpio17
He looks lighter compared to that lakers game
WhenItsHalfPastFive
After LeBron and Steph retire, I think Zion could have the highest star power in the league, and could generate the most fan interest.
Sorry, it’s not going to be Jokic, who is already looking like one of the greatest players of all time and yet moves slow, doesn’t generate as much excitement from fans. Giannis is a good choice though. Luka maybe, but again not as high flying and fast of a player. Edwards is better from the perimeter, but inside the 3 point line, I’m still taking Zion.
Spaghettiisgoddog
Definitely would not have expected a layup.
The_Assassin_Gower
This guy being fat and out of shape is probably the dumbest reddit take here
PorQ201
I was hoping for a dunk but still impressive.
desirox
He’s obviously in way better shape than earlier and it’s showing. This is the Zion everyone has been expecting
RPDC01
IMO (mainly b/c I’m numb to Zion’s athletic feats) the most impressive thing in that clip is PG defending without fouling.
TheLeoMessiah
He’s looked different these last few weeks, like he did at the beginning of last season except he’s hitting his stride at just the right time this year.
EcstaticActionAtTen
Relative to his explosiveness, Zion has the softest hands around the rim I’ve ever seen.
extreme_sleepy
I still believe Zion can dominate the game.
Magi604
He’s beginning to believe
__cosmichorror
What if Zion actually does come into his own?

why do yall think reddit “super obvious sarcastic joke that isn’t funny” poster posts like this are clever lol
that being said, GO BIG Z

I mean if he was “in shape”, he’d do it in one second.

What the fuck is someone supposed to do when a 285LB man is going 20 MPH down the court? Like what can you possibly?!?
