May 24th, Lakeshow today spoke about Chinese player Yang Hansen on social media.

Lakeshow wrote: "Former CBA best defensive player Yang Hansen is expected to join the Lakers? Yang Hansen, who is expected to be selected in the second round of the 2025 NBA draft, may not make headlines, but he may become an unexpected surprise. The 7-foot-2-inch (2.18 meters) Chinese center has top-notch wingspan, timing ability and unexplored huge potential, perfectly fits the Lakers' needs in player height and future development."

" Yang Hansen is not mature yet, but his height and enthusiasm cannot be taught. He can run the whole game, block the shots, and has shown some skills, at the NBA level These skills may be further developed under the guidance of other coaches. If they can become Luca's partner, Yang Hansen can bring the Lakers their much-needed defensive presence, and if they can be properly trained, he may become an important player. When fans pay attention to big-name players, the Lakers may pick up a gem in the second round. Yang Hansen can hone in the South Bay Lakers, and they can train him to be a real rotation player and basket protector, and become a dynamic big man with a certain threat of all-around threat. Second-round drafts are often where the dynasty teams silently strengthen. If the Lakers choose Yang Hansen, this young man may be very special." Lakeshow added.

The Lakers have the No. 55 pick in this year's draft.
