His game encompasses much more, as he exhibits craftiness around the rim and an ability to score with both hands. One of Zach’s most commendable traits is his high basketball IQ. He has a knack for catching defenders off-guard with well-timed backdoor cuts, demonstrating his understanding of offensive spacing and timing.
