NBA fans crushed ESPN's Mark Jackson for immediately questioning Zion Williamson's weight

WOW. @espn really posted Zion’s weight like it’s a stat….. pic.twitter.com/kJkjhvdfhC

Zion if you see this, don't listen to Mark Jackson. We think you look just terrific. #BodyPositivity

Why are ratings down, we ask as Mark Jackson complains about Zion’s body.

Zion has played 4 minutes and Mark Jackson has already called him out of shape and said he'd rather have Ja Morant

These two telling Zion he needs to lose weight is laughable. He’s 285 and has a 45 inch vert, ESPN is borderline unwatchable. pic.twitter.com/XWitkgQGS5

can't get over how Mark Jackson has responded to days of ESPN hype for this game by saying that Zion is fat and that he would take Ja Morant over him in the first quarter after Zion played four minutes

Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson making wild assumptions about Zion Williamson’s health and strength right now… pic.twitter.com/C1NTMVHG7z

God this ESPN broadcast team is insufferable. Can we try talking about something besides Zion's weight and how Morant is clearly the better player?

Should’ve let Doris do play-by-play for this game.

Mark Jackson and JVG gonna spend the next 3 quarters body-shaming Zion pic.twitter.com/pzoZ9w31E2

For the people not in the blender, games on FSNOLA, save yourself from Mark jackson rambling and JVG ranting.

Listening to Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson lecture Zion Williamson on how to become a better athlete is truly incredible

5 minutes in, Mark Jackson & Jeff Van Gundy are already sucking the fun out of #ZionDay pic.twitter.com/M0KeTjQWya

So far this game has consisted of Zion getting tired after 90 seconds, Mark Jackson And JVG fat shaming him and Jackson saying he might be a bust. https://t.co/Nh80Z5Jg9U

On @Zionwilliamson “I haven’t seen him before in person but I can tell you…he needs to be in better shape” – Mark Jackson after 2 min @NBA @ESPNNBA

— Bill C… (@Fatbabies76) January 23, 2020

Zion scores his first basket and Mark Jackson finds a way to talk about himself.
