Beijing time on March 19, according to the famous reporter Brain Windhorst, Pelicans star Zion Williamson has lost 25 pounds since December last year; the reporter said: Sources in New Orleans told me that since Zion has lost 25 pounds (11.3 kg) or more since the mid-season championship in December, and his performance on the court has been outstanding.
Since Zion entered the league, the outside world has been calling on him to lose weight. However, Zion is not only unwilling to control his eating habits, but also bluntly said that he often eats some junk food, which may be due to his excessive weight. In the first four seasons, Zion suffered multiple injuries and only played 114 games. He was even said to be the next Oden.
Now famous reporters report that Zion has lost 25 pounds in the past three months, and his performance after losing weight has been very good; according to statistics, in the last four games, Zion has averaged 30 points and 8 rebounds per game. 3.8 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, shooting 65.8% from the field.
So far this season, Zion has played 56 games, averaging 22.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.1 assists per game, and shooting 58.2% from the field. As we all know, Zion’s best way of scoring is to rely on his excellent athletic ability to attack the opponent’s penalty area. This season's inside scoring average is 17.6 points per game, ranking second in the league behind Antetokounmpo.
The Pelicans currently rank fifth in the Western Conference with 41 wins and 26 losses, only 1 game behind the Clippers. Zion and Ingram are leading the team to strive for the top four in the Western Conference.
