She has 3 years left before she can enter the draft, but so much can change until then... such as Ziyu and/or the Fever improving out of each other's reach.
I know it’s unfair to the opposition. However she does show some actual basketball skills. She’s very coordinated for her height and actually a good passer from the low post. This will be different of course once she starts facing bigger players from the WNBA.
Literally no chance. None of the Japanese players can bother her shots under the rim. Even with arms fully extended, or double teamed. It doesn’t matter. You could possible just deny easy buckets with fouls and force her to score from the line but then you risk so many players fouling out
@@stevenadams9511 yeah. I looked up the shooting splits and she’s pretty solid at the line. China’s got a free win here. No one has the size to compete at this level. (Obviously different story once it’s not a junior team). At this point if I was a coach, i’d literally make my players foul bait her to get her subbed out the game. Minimize her impact etc. still hard to do, seems disciplined enough and she doesn’t need to jump in the first place to block shots.
how about battle her for position and dont let her walk into the paint untouched. if shes constantly having to shove through people she'd probably atleast get tired.
Just a matter of how you define a superstar. An abnormal tall girl just trowing in a ball because of her length. I do not see any other real bball skills . But hey, it works for scoring points.
Not necessarily, if she becomes a perimeter shooting threat and 3-point threat then absolutely she will. Zhang is only a consistent scoring threat in the paint. If Team USA ends up beating her team it'll likely be by perimeter and 3 point shooting.
At 17 that's unbelievable. She doesn't know how to get in position to box out and she still had 14 rebounds from size and good hands. Nice touch around the basket. A few hook fade moves as well which are unstoppable with that type of height difference
The top thing i like about her is she’s very thick for her height good size arms and legs overall body she seems very strong gots a good little one hand put in With all that i don’t think the girls in the WNBA are going to beat up on her now things she needs to improve is developing a jumpshot for mid range getting some speed running the court and man i love to see someone like Hakeem Olajuwon work with her on a post spin move if she could develop a dream shake and run the floor no one would stop her
She’s honestly an incredible passer. If her teammates would have shot a few of those shots she would have had 5-7 more assists. That’s just what was shown from the highlight
Curious? What part of her game demonstrated "this" TALENT you mentioned> her ball handling skills?,,,,,,,dribbling skills?...her shooting skills? (all her baskets were from 4-7 feet from the basket) maybe it's her foot speed. Genetics (height) and Talent are totally different entities.
Shaq, on whom so many fouled against, was far worse at FTs than Ziyu at 17. Fouling Ziyu wouldn't work for the purposes for which "hack-a-Shaq" was used.
She was too young to play in Paris, the IOC rules require basketball players to be 18 to be playing at the Olympics. The question is: how does she stack up against the Chinese bigs in Paris?
It's like when you are in elementary school and one of the teams is short a player so the coach plays. If she can stay healthy, she's got a career ahead of her, but big people like this once they get out of their teens tend to have all sorts of health issues.
Ini bukan lagi pertandingan untuk beradu skill. Bahkan dia tidak perlu bisa dribling bola, menerima umpan lalu dilempar ke keranjang sudah cukup untuk menang.
If a NBA player hold up a basketball and other players cannot reach it (their jump reach can be 3.5 meters), then his height is about 2.7 meters to 3 meters. Imagine a player with a height of 2.7 meters+ entering the NBA. This is Zhang Ziyu's talent in women's basketball. Really insanity.
She needa learn how to dunk... also, she's literally the same height as Wemby. Some sources say she's 7'5... so maybe even taller. Any time I think up of another stat for this girl... it's off the charts. WNBA... introducing ur female Yao Ming. Let's pray she will remain healthy!!

hi, zhang ziyu's knees
Would be amazing
I would feel happy, nervous and intimidated at the same time.
Solo viaja y la verás en el fast food comprando un pollo frito y una soda, así de simple 😂😂😂
She's unstoppable man
they didnt need to call a foul for holding her arm when she was taking a shot 😂😂😂
i'm so impressed with her vertical leap
And you still wouldn’t be able to block her.
Her jumper at the end was smooth!
She's got good touch around the basket
a little easy to do from 3 ft from the basket, with no one ABLE to block your shot.
She can literally get 100 rebounds per game if she wants, just deliberately miss and rebound, no one can challenge her lol!
There is also a mixed-Chinese and England player named Zhang Ziyue. She is number 13.
Lol , they’re names are almost the same, nr 13 and this nr 19 giant girl: Zhang Ziyu
Who was pretty ineffective this game
Different pronunciations. Ziyu = juh-yoo. Ziyue = juh-yoo-eh

She should come to the wbna next year. Easy first round pick and it will also generate so much viewership and increase ticket sells.
Play with Caitlin on the Fever!

Genetics not talents
I thought FIBA should add the defensive 3-second rule, just like the NBA.

No. Decreasing the importance of big man is soft
NBA did it for Shaq. It will be a honor for Zhang if FIBA does it.
