Zhang Ziyu, the towering 14-year-old basketball player from China, has become a sensation after her impressive debut at the FIBA U18 Women’s Asia Cup 2024. Standing at an impressive 220 cm (7’2″), Zhang Ziyu made a significant impact in her first game with the national team, scoring 19 points and contributing with 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in just 13 minutes off the bench. Her performance helped China secure a convincing victory over Indonesia with a score of 109-50.

Zhang Ziyu’s debut has not only been a highlight for China but has also sparked excitement and comparisons to the legendary Yao Ming, who is often considered one of China’s greatest basketball players. Her presence on the court has been described as “must-see” by fans and analysts alike, and she has quickly become a topic of discussion both in China and internationally.

 

 

The young athlete’s journey from a local basketball court to the international stage is an inspiring story that captures the imagination of many. As she continues to grow (?) and develop her skills, Zhang Ziyu is poised to become a key figure in the future of Chinese (and international) basketball.
