Does anyone else see a Larry Johnson type career for Zion if he doesn't shed some weight?

Grandmama shown bright early, but eventually that size caught up to him and he fizzled quickly. Could Zion be the same thing?
Zion lost weight between his rookie season and now. Not sure how much more he can lose without it hurting his game.
Did he? Dang!!! He still looks huge.
That's just the reporting I heard, but he's supposedly down to around 260lbs. Still a huge weight for a 6'6" guy, but it's a far sight better than 285.

The long term stress on his ligaments is what worries me. It's not his muscle that will give out it's those darn ligaments and the meniscus in the knee that might doom his career from being a long one.

Hope not. The guy is a joy to watch. He's everything you want in an old school PF.
For sure, his body is under a lottttt of stress.

It was awhile ago but, here is the line from the Celtic's OT loss to Pels.

Smart was out.
Kemba - Brown- Tatum were 7 for 29 from three - the team was 27% from three.

The Pels were 30% from three...not much better.

Zion was 11/21 had 11 rebounds and 28 points.
Ingram had 33 points.

Robert had 8 points 13 rebounds and 4 blocks because he's the best.

Nesmith played 26 minutes and had 10 points. I won't mention the 5 fouls.

These dirty shore birds must be found out and put away tonight.

We defended Zion very well first half of that game.

There's a highlight of Robert blocking Zion. Then again, Robert blocks everybody...just add Zion to victim list.

Starting  Grant Williams over Fournier... that’s disrespectful
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.
