It's unbelievable, Zhang Ziyu will really become a superstar who rules Asia without playing in the WCBA. To be honest, no one took this 17-year-old girl seriously at first. Even the U17 women's basketball coach Wang Guizhi only let her play with the mentality of "try it out". The result? In the first game, Zhang Ziyu made 9 shots and 9 hits in his limited playing time, and there was no missing shot! The coaching staff took a look, hey, this little girl is not simple, there is a play!
Before, there was not much expectation for Zhang Ziyu in the women's basketball circle. After all, she had never been in the U16 national youth and national team before, and some people even muttered that she was slow and slow to react. But this time in the Asian Youth Championships, Zhang Ziyu completely turned around, which impressed everyone!
Let's talk about the opponents of the Asian Youth Championship first. To put it simply, it is divided into three grades: Australia is world-class, and it has a fight with the United States women's basketball team; Japan and Korea are considered to be the top in Asia; Indonesia and other teams, well, are here to join in the fun. The addition of Zhang Ziyu is simply a shot in the arm for our Chinese women's basketball team. With her, we can break our wrists with the Australia women's basketball U17; Without her, to be honest, the strength of our women's basketball team is really not comparable to the Japan women's basketball team. Even the Korea women's basketball coach said that without Zhang Ziyu, they would have a chance to beat the Chinese women's basketball U17.
So how powerful is Zhang Ziyu? Let's put it this way, in the game, as long as the team uses the base-line ball tactics and Zhang Ziyu catches the ball under the basket, he can basically score. This baseline ball is as easy as sending points. Zhang Ziyu is in the position under the basket, whether it is attacking the basket or half-turning, the opponent can only stare dryly, and he can't touch the ball. And what about her? You can also adjust your hand shape slowly, and score points with ease.
Of course, Zhang Ziyu is not omnipotent. She also has shortcomings, such as the core strength is not strong enough, and the offensive means under the basket are not rich enough. When she encounters a defender of her height and strength, her offensive efficiency is reduced. But then again, these are things that can be improved with training. Moreover, Zhang Ziyu's cardiopulmonary ability is as good as that of ordinary athletes, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in strength and technique. In time, this little girl will definitely be able to go to the next level!
Now, 17-year-old Zhang Ziyu has shown absolute dominance in the Asian arena. At this rate, by 2025, she is likely to be selected for the women's national basketball team and become the absolute superstar of the WCBA 2025 season. When the time comes, we can enjoy her wonderful performance at our doorstep!
What's even more exciting is that, according to Zhang Ziyu's own words, her goal is not only the Asian arena. She also wants to play in the WNBA like her predecessor Zheng Haixia! You know, Zheng Haixia is the pride of our Chinese women's basketball team, and she has made a name for herself in the WNBA. If Zhang Ziyu can really achieve this goal, it will really give our Chinese women's basketball team a long face!
The rise of Zhang Ziyu not only brought new hope to our Chinese women's basketball team, but also allowed us to see the potential and fighting spirit of young athletes. This kind of spirit is worth learning and learning from each of us. Whether you are a basketball fan or a friend who is interested in basketball, don't forget to give Zhang Ziyu a thumbs up and cheer! Her success is also the success of our young generation of Chinese athletes, let us look forward to her continuing to shine on the basketball court in the future!
