New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson was supposed to be the next big thing in the NBA. Gifted with otherworldly athleticism given his size and build, Zion was a force of nature that looked to dominate the league.

However, Williamson’s NBA career hasn’t just been derailed by many injuries; it has been blemished by his alleged affairs involving OnlyFans models. Because of this, former NBA stars Lindsey Hunter and Tim Hardaway think that Williamson has a compulsive sexual behavior.

“He got a problem,”said Hunter. “The man’s a sex addict. He’s been caught. He needs help. Why does he keep texting them from his phone? … He’s going for like p-rnstars. What is wrong with him? He needs to chill out. They need to give him therapy. Talking to him is not gonna help. I’m sure people have talked to him already… That means you have a problem. Can’t control himself.”

Williamson has a thing for OF models

Zion was the No.1 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft by the New Orleans Pelicans. Although Ja Morant beat him to the Rookie of the Year award, he became an All-Star one year ahead of Ja and was the fourth youngest All-Star ever in 2021. However, injuries slowed him down, and in 2023, OF model and former adult movie star Moriah Mills came forward and claimed that she had an intimate relationship with Williamson.

Mills came with receipts as she exposed alleged Snapchat and text conversations with Williamson. There are at least 35 tweets by Mills where she talks about Zion. Some are explicit so that you can read them here.

The Moriah issue seemed to be dying a natural death, but a couple of weeks ago, another OnlyFans model, Alisa Alcantara, who goes by the handle @dopechick69, came forward and revealed that Zion might be the father of her child. She even posted a video of herself and Zion to substantiate her claim.

“Maybe he wants to be a p-rnstar,” added Hardaway. “Maybe it’s his dream. Maybe it’s his next career. You never know. If you keep going for them, that’s what he probably might want to do. You’ll never know. I’m just saying….’The Hulk Smash’ or something like that.”

Not a laughing matter

Of course, Tim Sr. and Lindsey were just having a good time talking about Zion’s exploits. However, if Hunter is correct that Williamson is a sex addict, then it is not a laughing matter, and as he said, the guy needs professional help, not just a pep talk from his teammates or coaches.

That’s because former Lakers forward Lamar Odom was a confessed addict who claimed to have gone to bed with over 2,000 women, mostly strippers. That led to the demise of his marriage to Khloe Kardashian.

“I have been obsessed with sex for as long as I can remember…I am a sex addict,” wrote Odom, via People. “There were too many strippers to count. It wasn’t a big deal, but often I would pay them. I never thought less of them.”

Not saying here that Zion and Lamar will end up with the same fate, because one, Williamson is not a drug user like Odom. But sex addiction is often used to mask anxiety or emotional problems. It can also affect a person’s day-to-day living. It is possible the Pelicans have done their due diligence on Zion’s case, and it’s unlikely as bad as Hunter thinks. But yeah, it’s not normal for him to be involved in cases like this so often.
