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.

Yeah put any NBA player on her and she's shut down. Hell any NCAA men's player would shut her down.
Men are just so much faster, stronger, and more athletic that I don't know why people think we should even have this conversation. She'd get totally wrecked in the NBA. I'd be surprised if she were able to score more than a couple of points at most and most of the time she'd be shut out.
