There is no way Zoubs (or any big man) can convert that play. Also, he has a tendency to put the ball on the floor before shooting. He needs to catch and shoot to take advantage of his size. He does not appear to be able to do anything offensively from other than a stationary position, and so should not be expected to. Once the ball goes to the floor he becomes a small forward and he can't compete with small forwards. The trick with Zoubs is to put him into positions where his size can make the difference, but don't expect athleticism. Unfortunately, he is on a team with many fantastic athletes. I think he is more of a half court player on a full court team. When put in winning positions, he plays well. JMOO.
