In the world of Chinese women's basketball, there are two players who can be called "giants" in terms of height and weight. They are 17-year-old Zhang Ziyu and 23-year-old Liu Yutong. Both players have significant strengths on the inside, but their characteristics and weaknesses are also different. In this article, we'll take a closer look at the specific stats and performances of these two players and explore their future paths.
The rise of Zhang Ziyu
Zhang Ziyu, 17 years old, is 2.28 meters tall, weighs 278 pounds, and stands about 2.90 meters tall. She is undoubtedly a talented interior player with a strong interior advantage. She has a soft shot and a strong attack under the basket, which puts opponents under pressure when defending her. However, Zhang Ziyu also has obvious weaknesses: poor flexibility and average athleticism. Her weight and height, while bringing incredible strength and height, also limited her movement speed and agility.
In the past games, Zhang Ziyu has shown her dominance under the basket. Whether it's rebounding or blocking, she's at the top of her game. However, when faced with quicker, more technically nimble opponents, she often struggles defensively. This lack of flexibility and athleticism is something she needs to focus on in the future.
On social media, many netizens are looking forward to Zhang Ziyu's future. A netizen commented: "Zhang Ziyu's height and strength make her the absolute overlord of the inner line, if she can improve her flexibility, the future must be limitless!" Some netizens also pointed out: "I hope Zhang Ziyu can lose weight appropriately and improve his movement speed, so that he can be more competitive in the international arena." ”
Basketball expert Li Ming said: "Zhang Ziyu showed extraordinary talent at a young age, but her weight and flexibility issues cannot be ignored. It is recommended that while maintaining her strength, she can lose weight appropriately and improve her agility and endurance through scientific training and diet management. ”
Liu Yutong's solid performance
Liu Yutong, 23 years old, 2.01 meters tall and weighs 260 pounds. She excels at scoring under the basket and is outstanding in the low post. Compared with Zhang Ziyu, Liu Yutong's flexibility, coordination and explosiveness are better. However, she is slower to retreat and is easy to target.
Liu Yutong was more well-rounded in the game, not only having a stable output on the offensive end, but also being able to help the team on the defensive end. She is skilled in the low post and can often find scoring opportunities in opposition defense. However, her weight and defensive speed are still areas that need improvement.
Many netizens affirmed Liu Yutong's performance. A netizen said: "Liu Yutong's technique and explosiveness are excellent, and he is an important scorer for the team. Hopefully, she can continue to improve her defensive speed and be more well-rounded. Another netizen commented: "Liu Yutong's performance is very stable, but it is easy to suffer in the face of rapid counterattacks, and he needs to work the speed of retreat." ”
Sports commentator Wang Tao pointed out: "Liu Yutong's technical and physical fitness are excellent, but her speed of retreat is an obvious shortcoming. She is advised to add speed and endurance to her training to improve her overall defensive level. ”
In comparison, Zhang Ziyu's advantages and disadvantages are more obvious. If she can practice Liu Yutong's technique, and then lose weight appropriately and increase flexibility, her strength will not be underestimated. Liu Yutong, on the other hand, needs to improve his defensive speed and become more comprehensive on the basis of maintaining the current technical level.
Fans also have different views on the future development of Zhang Ziyu and Liu Yutong. Some people believe that Zhang Ziyu's talent has given her a higher ceiling, and as long as she is polished, she will definitely become a world-class player. Others are more optimistic about Liu Yutong's steadiness and comprehensiveness, believing that her comprehensive quality makes her more stable in her career.
In any case, these two players represent the future of the Chinese women's basketball team. Their respective strengths and weaknesses also show us where different types of players are headed. In the future, with the accumulation of training and competition experience, I believe that they can achieve more brilliant achievements in their respective fields.
