No. The “Fat Hami” lines were always very wrong. Zion played nothing whatsoever like Hami, he was one of the best and most efficient players in college hoops history. Very much the real deal.
But this is a real problem. Once heavy dudes start to gain weight without control, they rarely ever make it back to their prior level of athleticism. Bodies peak at different ages, and with heavy guys it tends to happen at an earlier age …sometimes at just like 18 or 19 …and then it’s all downhill from there. Zion looks like he might be one of those guys.
But, unlike some others here, I take no joy in it. I’ve quite enjoyed watching the guy play. Even if he was a Dukie.
