In just four years in the NBA, Zion Williamson has garnered unprecedented attention. The 23-year-old’s career in the league has been plagued by injuries and scandals. However, just when he seemed to be on his path to redemption, a major controversy has tarnished his reputation. This situation interestingly is not something the $50,000,000 worth R&B icon Chris Brown is unfamiliar with.
Over the years, Grammy Award winner Chris Brown has dealt with his share of controversies. Hence, it is safe to assume that he knows a thing or two about Williamson’s situation. Breezy divulged on this very matter recently on a 3-time Super Bowl champion’s show.

Moments after announcing a joyous moment in his life, Zion Williamson entered into a major controversy. It all began when ex-adult film star, Moriah Mills accused the 23-year-old Pelicans forward of cheating on her. Then came some outrageous claims that brutally attacked the New Orleans Pelicans forward’s reputation. However, Chris Brown too, has experienced his share of such controversies in the past.
Chris Brown has dealt with controversy throughout his 21-year journey in the R&B industry. Hence, the Grammy Award winning singer felt obliged to share his opinion about the incident on 3-time Super Bowl champion, Shannon Sharpe’s show.
“I would just pray for Zion man,” said the 34-year-old, when asked about the Pelicans forward’s controversy. He advised the 23-year-old, saying, “Just pray and you know, be the best man you can be at that point…”
Breezy then put out a more personal response, saying, “I’m blessed to have three children. Three different baby moms but at the same time, the relationship that I’ve build with them….I’m a little bit more subtle with it. It’s very hard but you also gotta watch out. It’s like we all want to be in the same spot, same places, the club….but at the same time, you just got to be mindful of the certain company you will keep….”
“On our end it’s a little bit different but I understand what he’s going through so he just gotta hold his head together man,” Brown further counselled the Pelicans forward.
Chris Brown had his say about the controversy Williamson has faced in the past few months. Given the seriousness of it all, the 23-year-old has a lot of ground to cover to aid his reputation. While this season seemed like a terrific opportunity to do just that, Williamson and his team have been hit with a major update.

While Zion Williamson seemed set on his path to redemption, the Pelicans have had to deal with a shocking update. Their 26-year-old superstar forward, Brandon Ingram will reportedly wait to engage in contract extension talks to return to the franchise.
After arriving in New Orleans as a part of the blockbuster trade that sent Anthony Davis to Los Angeles, Ingram quickly became a pivotal piece on the Pelicans roster. His exceptional skills perfectly complimented Williamson’s game, leading the franchise to the top of the Western Conference last season before the 23-year-old’s injury. Hence, his departure from the franchise may put Williamson in a tough spot.
