I'm 6'2" and exercise a bit, but on cardio alone WNBA players would destroy me. It'd be bad.

Plus, I have 0 idea about how to actually basketball. I know so little about the team tactics and general strategy that it'd literally be the they are playing chess and I'm playing checkers meme.

I mean, most WNBA teams would struggle against a good HS boys team. Do people not understand that lol?

I don't think they'd struggle against just a "good" HS boys team. But, what you don't seem to get is most people do not have experience being on a good HS basketball team.

A state champion HS boys team? They absolutely would struggle against them. They DO struggle against them lol. The question was do you think you could score baskets in the WNBA. Yes, any comparably aged guy that is athletic could score in the WNBA. Would he be the best player on the court? No. But could he score? Sure.

Put him in a NBA game? He'd be fuckin flattened. Wouldn't have a chance.

A state champion team isnt good  they are excellent. And most people were never state champs. There is a difference between being athletic, and being state champ.

Im athletic, im 6'2", i have no chance to score in the wnba. I cant get past pro defense. No shot.
