With only three games left in their 2017 regular season, the Minnesota Lynx signed Zandalasini as an unrestricted free agent on 28 August 2017.[6] Zandalasini was only able to play 18:37 of the remainder of the regular season and 11 during the playoffs, which the Lynx won.[2]

On 7 February 2018 it was announced that the Lynx would re-sign Zandalasini for the 2018 season.[7] Zandalasini became a breakout player during the season after a buzzer-beating play against the New York Liberty in their 16 June game.[8] She has subsequently seen more minutes of play, establishing herself as a fit for the sixth woman role.[9][10]

Zandalasini did not play with the Lynx during their 2019 season due to her international team commitments and an ankle injury.[11]

On 29 February 2020 the Lynx announced they would re-sign Zandalasini for the 2020 season in a non-disclosed deal. However she did not play any games for the Lynx during the shortened 2020 season.[12][13][14]

Fenerbahçe (2018–2021)

On 4 July 2018 she had signed a two-year deal with the Turkish women's basketball club, Fenerbahçe.[15]

Virtus Bologna (2021–present)

On 5 May 2021 Zandalasini signed a two-year deal with the Italian women's basketball club Virtus Bologna.[16] Despite good premises, in November 2021 the team was eliminated in the group stage of the EuroCup.[17] On 19 April 2022, during the national semi-finals against Reyer Venezia, Lino Lardo was fired and his assistant Angela Gianolla became the new head coach.[18] The team ousted Reyer Venezia by 2–1 in the national semi-finals, reaching the finals for the first time in its history and qualifying for the EuroLeague Women. However, Virtus was defeated 3–1 by Famila Schio.[19]

In the following season, Virtus played for the first time in the EuroLeague Women, but it was ousted in the regular season with a winning record of 5–9.[20] The club ended the Italian championship's season at the first place but, once again, it lost the national finals against Famila Schio by 2–0.[21]
