About Zy

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

My gameplay style is team-oriented and versatile. I focus on strong defense, quick transitions, and making smart passes to create scoring opportunities for my teammates. I value hustle, communication, and always look for ways to contribute—whether it's rebounding, setting screens, or hitting open shots.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

My mentality on the court is competitive and resilient. I stay positive even in tough situations and always give my best effort. I’m coachable, focused on continuous improvement, and I support my teammates with encouragement and leadership. I believe in working hard, staying disciplined, and playing with respect for both the game and my opponents.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I play for The Sanford Sports Academy - Fargo, ND.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

As a team player, I often take initiative during practices and games, motivating my teammates and leading by example both on and off the court. I’ve learned how to communicate effectively, adapt to different roles, and support my teammates to achieve our common goals.

I’ve seen Zy a number of times already this offseason and he always performs for The Next Level Basketball Academy 14U-1 team. His 3-point shooting is a key ingredient to the team’s success and he can get them to drop in bunches, at times. He can pump-fake from three and get going and be a threat attacking the hoop as well. Messmer provides value for the squad and its success.
