After missing the entire 2021-22 NBA season due to an injury, fans are now super excited to see Zion Williamson back in action. Obviously, Zion has the potential to become one of the best players in the league, and he is yet to show that he can stay healthy enough to do so.

Zion is a freak of nature and has unreal athleticism. If he cannot manage to play consistently, then it's no good. The very first step for Zion to get in top shape would be to eat healthily and manage his diet.

Speaking of that, Zion's personal chef Christian Green recently sat down for an interview. Green discussed several things about being a chef for Zion. Among those was what's the New Orleans Pelicans star's favorite food? Well, as per Green, the 22-year-old loves seafood more than anything.

Via SI:

I started with Zion in March. His camp reached out to me and I sat down with him. Zion loves seafood. He loves salmon so whatever chance I can get to give him seafood, seared fish. Nothing fried, nothing unhealthy. We're on a goal to get him where he needs to be. Honestly being with him the first few months, we've come a long way. He looks good.

It's good to know that Zion is finally taking care of his health and is avoiding unhealthy food. This is probably one of the reasons why Green also believes that Zion will become the face of the league once LeBron James retires from the NBA.

But for now, Williamson needs to focus on short-term goals. One such goal of the NOLA superstar is to win the 2022-23 NBA MVP. As we mentioned earlier, if he can stay healthy throughout the season, then he might have a real shot at winning the honor.
