Life hasn’t been very smooth for the Pelicans star ever since his arrival into the league. Hoop fans had huge expectations for the 22-year-old. However, he missed numerous games due to an injury. The young forward weighs a massive 284 pounds. The weight has helped Williamson to dominate his opponents inside the paint. Moreover, there is no match for the explosiveness. In fact, Williamson got all his fame from the fancy dunks during college. However, fans think the excessive weight is a bane!
The Pelicans star played only 29 games this season due to a hamstring injury. His team made it to the play-in tournament in his absence. Williamson was cleared to ball in the play-in, but the explosive forward decided not to disrupt the momentum late in the season. He also felt he wasn’t completely recovered. Well, the fans did not like this decision from him!
