Zion is lowkey a major reason the ratings have tanked in recent years. The NBA/ESPN did a masterful job in marketing him at Duke and going all-in on him being the future face of the League. He entered this league as the most publicized and hyped rookie we've seen since Bron yet hasn't repaid even 1/10 of the faith Silver placed in him.
Zion and Ja had next but the Basketball Gods had other plans

Above the fray.
Not a doctor, and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but hamstring injuries happen when someone doesn't stretch enough before going full speed or just does an intense movement that strains it.

My guess is his body isn't conditioned to move like it does. Never heard of a player this young with chronic hamstring injuries. That's really rare and unheard of.
With a professional sports team training staff who are well aware of his injury history, safe to say that they took every possible precaution. Probably have tailor made conditioning, warm-up routines and personnel for him.

At this point, he's just an injury prone player.

Im curious why is he so injury prone now vs when he was in college. It’s not like he’s old. Is the training regimen leading to more injuries? It can’t be the NBA schedule because he hasn’t played many games at all.

That’s why I say reducing the number of games aren’t going to make for a better product. If there was a 50 game schedule, players would miss games. There are star players who play 75-82 games yearly.
