Yet again, Zion Williamson made news for his weight loss ahead of his next season. In the last five seasons, the story has been almost the same for the New Orleans Pelicans star and Jalen Rose's daughter, Mariah Rose, who perfectly summed up the story with a Beyoncé analogy.In a long analogy, Mariah Rose explained the Williamson situation to women. She said that Zion was like an upcoming star who was considered the next Beyoncé. While the star reaped benefits, she never showed her full potential. "She's doing press, she's fu***** everywhere and making so much money, but she hasn't put out an album yet," she said. "Unfortunately, she's put on a ton of weight and so it stops her from being able to perform at 100%. Wake up early for press calls and label...she just keeps getting injured.Adding that being in top shape was kind of Williamson's job, but he did everything except getting ready for the season. "It's kids part of her job and everyone's constantly seeing her at the club, running around, eating everywhere, not really putting any effort to be better at her craft even though label already paid her millions."

The Pelicans star also revealed that he had "man-to-man" conversations with Dumars and Pelicans' GM Troy Weaver."He's going to hold me accountable, and as he holds me accountable, he’s going to give me a lot of responsibility as well, which I'm excited for,” Williamson said about Dumars. "I know he’s going to hold me to a really high standard, and if I slip up or anything, I know he's going to be right there to make sure I get right back on the path."Williamson credited the Pelicans' trainer, Daniel Bove, for his transformation. He said that Bove added boxing and "working out on the football field" among his several workouts to achieve the goal.The Pelicans will open their season against the Memphis Grizzlies in October. They finished last season with a 21-61 record.
