Zion Williamson Taking Heat After Being Linked To Disturbing Arrest

Since being drafted first overall back in 2019, Zion Williamson's career has taken some interesting twists and turns.

When he's on the court he's been great, but injuries have mostly robbed him of reaching his full potential. And when it comes to off-the-court, the Pelicans forward is no stranger to TMZ headlines.

On Wednesday, an alleged stalker of Zion was reportedly arrested for assaulting another woman the two-time All-Star is involved with — threatening his partner: "Count your days… it's going to be your head next when I drop this baby."

The stalker in-question faces three counts of home invasion, aggravated burglary and a $50,000 bond.

Fans reacted to the wild story ahead of the start of the NBA playoffs.

"I told y'all a long time ago Zion need a camera and mic in front of him at all times," a user said. "We're being robbed of quality entertainment."

"Any woman who smiles in a mugshot is a keeper," another joked.

"I ain't seen zion williamson have a fine girl ever," a fan cried. "Whole roster full of chopped [expletive] and they all crazy. ... He gotta do better."

"He got the worst roster of all [expletive] time," another person replied.

"That 30 for 30 on Zion bout to do numbers," another user commented.

"Everybody thought weight would stop Zion and it's really just women."

In 30 appearances this season Zion has averaged 24.6 points per game to go along with 7.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.2 steals per contest.

But earlier this week, the Pels announced he would be shut down for the season's final four games with a back contusion.
