Then she'd be absolutely physically outclassed and even being 6' tall she would be one of the shortest players in the league. Nothing about her making an NBA team would make sense.
I just didn't realize how stiff and upright she is.

Like most I've seen the highlights of her. She has a quick release (most of the time) and does seem to know how to get to her spots. She's fearless and that helps.

But she is no sort of athlete out there and in the rare instances I've seen clips of people playing defense on her, they're just toying with her.

Anybody remember watching Shawn Bradley back in the 90s? Guy was just big and gangly and laughably terrible because he had no athleticism at all. She's an outside shooting version of Shawn Bradley.

I mean it can't be quite as simple as I've let on - nobody scores 4,000 points or whatever she's scored by being a complete duffer. She's dealt with good defenses in the past. But it looks like anytime you have someone that's quick, they expose her a little bit. And when you combine that with a team that has the physicality and speed to get to her spots before her and just body her off them, she doesn't really have a Plan B that I can see.
