“You’ll never beat LeBron James” Moriah Mills taunts Zion Williamson for his injury and LeBron incapability
After Zion Williamson was forced to exit Tuesday’s play-in game due to an injury, which ultimately resulted in the New Orleans Pelicans losing to LeBron James and the Lakers, Moriah Mills couldn’t help but make fun of Williamson. The 23-year-old was unable to continue playing and was clearly in discomfort as he hobbled off the floor following a shot.

In a video posted on TikTok, Mills poked fun at the circumstance and then delivered a scathing critique of her ex. She laughed, “They don’t play about me, like, that’s all I’m gonna say,” and then said, “Honestly, you’ll never beat the GOAT, you’re not the GOAT. You’re not LeBron James. You’ll never beat LeBron James. Goodnight.”

There have been previous instances where Mills has behaved playful and petulantly toward Williamson. When Williamson revealed that his girlfriend was expecting a child more than a year ago, it all began. Though she had before declared that she and Williamson were “in love,” the Pelican actress has never discussed their romance in public.

While Williamson has been preoccupied with his game and his expanding family (a daughter was born in November of last year), Mills has persisted in making fun of his playing style on social media, even likening it to his prowess in the bedroom.
Williamson may sit out the remaining playoff games.
Williamson’s absence from the Pelicans’ pivotal game against the Sacramento Kings was later disclosed, which only served to exacerbate the situation. The continuous teasing between Mills and Williamson is only intensified by this turn of events.

It is evident that Mills and Williamson are joking around with one another, with Mills using the exchange as an opportunity to make fun of Williamson’s performance on the court. Even though she said them in a casual manner, there is clearly tension between the two.
It would be interesting to watch how Zion Williamson handles Mills’ taunts and whether he speaks out about their friendship as the drama develops. The two continue to joke about with each other in a lighthearted manner for the time being.
