Zhou Qi
arm span
In fact, not only Chinese players, and even the whole of Asia, there are very few like Europe and the United States those tall arm long players, but the "big magic king" Zhou Qi is an exception, this early in the period of the national youth has already shown their absolute dominance of the big man. In 2016 Zhou Qi to participate in the Chicago joint tryout physical testing, when he had three data are ranked in the joint tryout rookies in the first, according to the NBA official display, Zhou Qi's barefoot height to 2 meters 17, arm span to 2 meters 33, standing touch height reached 2 meters 86, but unfortunately, such physical talent did not allow Zhou Qi to be able to be selected in the first round of the NBA team in the 2016 draft conference! He was not picked by the Rockets until the 43rd pick of the second round.
In fact, such as Zhou Qi has the advantage of arm span inside players, not to mention Asia, is placed in the entire NBA is a rare corner, we must know that the original Yi Jianlian arm span is only 2 meters 22, Yao Ming arm span is only 2 meters 26, as strong as the O'Neal arm span than Zhou Qi to come to the 2 meters 31. in the basketball movement, has the advantage of the arm span of the players, no matter whether it is the offense or the defensive end, will be more dominant! The NBA team has a lot of talent for these players, so they are extremely important. Unfortunately, Zhou Qi went to the NBA, and was not able to get the then head coach D'Antoni's appreciation, most of the time are in the development of the league practice.
If the rocket is willing to give Zhou Qi some more opportunities, he will not become the NBA's hasty passer-by, we must know that at that time and he competed in the development league with Hattenstein, have been in the Knicks sit firmly in the starting rotation position, and at that time the performance to be even better than him, Zhou Qi, in the case of a handful of outside shooting ability, really want to get a stable playing time in the development of the NBA will not be more than the He is poor.
