He don't deserve the hype and salary he get from Pelicans if he's prone to injury and seat the whole season when he's not healthy. Their team is badly affected with his situation and if they won't do anything provably that they won't go anywhere with Zion also with their current roster they have.
Even if we all agree with that. That's part of the contract and the Pelicans can't do anything about that. Zion is easily making money from them and remains to be an injury prone guy while his body mass isn't even getting thinner.
But based on what I've read, with the remaining 3 years, it's no longer guaranteed for him and they'll give him flexibility.
I agree with this, and I agreed with it even when he was drafted and everyone disagreed with me because they saw Zion playing against players who were a foot shorter than him and can't jump, so Zion looked like this athletic beast but nobody realized that he wasn't facing any type of opponent there, and he didn't had any college career to talk about neither, so it is not really a big deal to do well at high school like him, many players do that and then become bad.
But when you look at his body type and what he does, it was obvious that his body couldn't handle all of that damage. When that dude jumps and comes back down, he is hurting his legs and knees and even ankles and this is why he looked injury prone and he was a one trick ponty too, he just was athletic and that's it, he had nothing else at all. So I knew that he would be bad, and I am just waiting on everyone to finally turn on him, eventually all of them will and we will see people agreeing with me eventually.
