Zion has the opportunity to LOSE money

Pelicans player Zion Williamson will have the chance to lose money due to weight penalties. Despite the quick signing and new money, the Pelicans have a backup plan in case all goes to heck in a handbasket.

Williamson signed a huge contract but has some provisions, which was bound to happen. If he goes over 295 pounds, combining weight and body fat, then he will begin to lose some of his guaranteed money. He will be doing periodic weigh-ins throughout the entirety of his new deal.

The 22-year-old will be held accountable for his weight as that has been a growing concern for the organization since his recent injuries and time away from the team. He has gone over 310 pounds recently, but the Pelicans are now hopeful he can slim back down. That should be a guarantee if he doesn’t want to lose out on any money.

According to multiple reports, spearheaded by ESPN, Brook Lopez did have his sights set on signing with the Los Angeles Lakers but pivoted due to the uncertainty of LeBron James’ future with the Lakers.

The Los Angeles Clippers swooped in and secured him for their center room. With him not wanting to be apart of the current LeBron drama in L.A., Lopez passed up being a starter to now being the backup to Ivica Zubac.

This offseason saw Deandre Ayton be bought out by the Portland Trail Blazers and signed by the Lakers, which came days after the Lopez news.

According to Marc Stein, the Golden State Warriors have been strongly interested in bringing back De’Anthony Melton for the next season. Last offseason saw Golden State sign Melton to a one-year, $12.4 million deal.

Fans only got to experience six games of Melton’s talents due to him suffering a partially torn left ACL. That injury left him done for the remainder of the season. For the Warriors, they would love to bring him back to give him another shot on the team.

Golden State has been linked to signing players like Al Horford, Bradley Beal, and now potentially the 27-year-old.
