Fans React To Zion Williamson's New Chest Tattoo: 'It's Not Even Centered'

One fan criticized every aspect of the tattoo and claimed he can't support Zion anymore in a hilarious overreaction.

Fans questioned Zion's decision-making and maturity.

The fact that the tattoo is off-center is bothering many fans on social media.

Some fans are hoping it's a temporary tattoo, especially because it seems to be leaning more towards one side instead of being in the center.

fans joked about the tattoo artist refusing to make the tattoo centered.

More fans brought up how Zion has made a string of poor decisions since making it to the NBA in 2019.

This is not nearly as egregious as some other Zion stories that have come out recently, but this is pretty funny. No one should care about what another person gets tattooed, but the fact it isn't centered is genuinely amusing. He didn't need to share the video either, as the tattoo will rarely be seen given Zion wears an undershirt under his jersey. 

Poking fun at a tattoo is harmless, but Zion's personal life has come under major scrutiny in recent months outside of social media jokes. His decision-making has been questioned multiple times, especially concerning how he treats his body. All of this becomes immaterial if Williamson manages to redeem his actions on the court.

Zion Williamson Earning His On-Court Plaudits Again

Zion hasn't had a fast start to the season as we've seen in previous seasons from the Pelicans forward when he's healthy. Usually, Zion storms the first few months of the season by helping the Pels look like a definite playoff team and cements an All-Star place as well. Unfortunately, in the two out of four seasons he has started healthy, he gets hurt in January and doesn't reach those heights again in a season.

Zion has had a slower start in comparison, averaging 22.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 4.4 assists through the first 25 games of the season. The Pelicans have overcome a shaky start to solidify their position as a play-in team or a borderline sixth seed. They have a record of 17-14 so far this season. 

There were many concerns raised around Zion's fitness in November after looking particularly out of shape in the Pelicans' In-Season Tournament loss to the Lakers. Critics came flying at Zion, along with a report that the Pelicans are still not pleased with his diet. 

His max contract extension has multiple caveats in it to protect the Pelicans from paying $126 million to a player who's habitually out of shape and injury-prone. His contract has already become non-guaranteed, so he needs to take extra care of himself to make sure he stays on the court.

A tattoo won't change anything, but a commitment to bettering his off-court habits could finally help Zion reach his potential as an NBA superstar.
