I think he’s around 270.

And why do you say that? At a USA basketball camp in Oct 2017, he measured 6'6" (an inch shorter than he is now) and 272. After a year of working out, 285 and growing an inch, adding 13 pounds is certainly realistic.

Those stats mean a BMI of 30+(obese)

I know BMI is sorta sketchy but its not that sketchy. 

260 is believable

He’s more than 260, but that would probably be an ideal weight for him.

Determining if someone is obese based only their height and weight isn't terribly useful. BMI doesn't take into account the makeup of someone's body, such as how much muscle vs. fat they have. ZIon is clearly pretty muscular and he is nowhere near obese.

IIRC, according to the BMI, Karl Malone was obese during his playing days.

What’s interesting is that this also,works at the other end of the height-weight spectrum. You, for instance, at 5’9” and 120 lbs have a BMI of 17.7, considered underweight (and certainly in girlish territory) yet given your sedentary number-cruncher day job and otherwise indolent lifestyle of almost constant inebriation, your spongy flesh measured an astonishing 29% body fat the last time you stumbled your way back to Reno, placing you solidly in the obese caregory. The physical disharmony on display when you walk into a room is shocking, to say the least. Please get help.

BMI is one of the dumbest health metrics ever invented.
