Tulsa Shock center Amanda Zahui B knew what to expect coming into the WNBA.

She was the No. 2 pick in April's WNBA Draft after she spent two years in college as an interior standout

for the Gophers.

Yet high draft pick hasn't equaled instant stardom for Zahui B. She was averaging six points, four

rebounds and one block in 11.8 minutes in six games for the Shock heading into Tulsa's matchup with

Minnesota on Sunday night.
