As Zion Williamson decided to sit out for the entire 2021-2022 season, social media attacked the youngster, directing all sorts of nasty trolls and immature fat jokes toward him. However, this media day, with the Pelicans star looking sleeker than ever before, naysayers have been left speechless.
Now that haters can’t criticize the former Duke Blue Devil, their next target is his teammate CJ McCollum.
A photo from the NOLA camp recently went viral, where Zion and CJ were having a conversation with David Griffin staring at his stars. Even though it was a beautiful photo, social media decided to attack McCollum for looking overweight.
Here, have a look at the photo.

For all the Pelicans fans, there is absolutely no need to worry. This is just a bad-angled photo that makes McCollum look larger than he actually is.
In fact, here is an actual photo of McCollum to hype up the NOLA fans.
