Who dares to believe that Yang Hansen is about to rush into the first round?

Welcome back to the Shisan Arena.

With continued performance in the NBA joint trial, Yang Hansen's draft market has been rising all the way in the past few days

was initially expected to be the end of the second round, but later it rose to the beginning of the second round; now, it has come to the end of the first round - according to the prediction of the NBA Draft Room, the US draft media, he is very likely to be selected by the Suns at the 29th pick in the first round.

Warriors (41 pick in the second round) and Heat (20 pick in the first round) also showed strong interest in him and had learned about him in depth through the phone.

Maybe we really have to witness another NBA first-round pick from China after Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian - Yang Hansen has basically confirmed that he will not lose the election, it depends on whether he can make it into the first round in the end.

After all, in the two NBA joint trials, he performed really well: 19 minutes into the first game, 5 of 7 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, scored 12 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists; 13 minutes into the game, 3 of 4 shots, 5 of 7 free throws, scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block, with only 2 turnovers.

Obviously, his basic shooting skills are relatively solid and he can also shoot three-pointers;

organization and passing ability are outstanding in the center - high-level support, ground-based passes, bottom-line passes, fast attack long passes... all of them are all performed.

Thanks to his excellent physique, his pick-and-roll quality is also good, and he is the type that can really block the defender and create space for his teammates to play. Of course, more important is the ball quotient and psychological quality. In the last quarter of the first game, he once played the role of the organizer on the field and completed it quite well; so in the second game, his teammates would take the initiative to hand over the ball to him to deal with it. He dared to take responsibility and command tactics, earning himself the nickname "Coach Yang".

At least compared to Zhou Qi back then, Yang Hansen's personality and mentality are obviously more suitable for the NBA arena.

For example, when an American reporter asked him: How do you view competition with draft players and how to deal with difficulties?

His answer was: Either you fly over my head, or you hit the ground!

Our culture emphasizes restraint and tolerance, but in the NBA, you have to be tougher, competitive and dare to perform.

Look back to the physical test data released by the NBA official website a few days ago:

Yang Hansen is 216cm tall, wingspan is 224cm, weight is 115kg, and standing height is 285cm;

In terms of static talent, it is quite outstanding. In comparison—

Yi Jianlian was 211cm tall, wingspan 222cm, weight 112kg, and standing height 283cm;

Jokic was 213cm tall, wingspan 222cm, weight 125kg, and standing height 282cm.

Compared with the national team senior Yi Jianlian or the template Jokic, Yang Hansen's static talent is undoubtedly better.

But in terms of athletic ability, he is indeed slightly inferior: he bounced 66cm on the spot, 76cm on the run-up, 3.38 seconds on the 3/4 field sprint;

Yi Jianlian - bounced 78cm on the spot, 90cm on the run-up, 3.17 seconds on the 3/4 field sprint;

Jokic - bounced 71cm on the spot, 73cm on the run-up, 3.26 seconds on the 3/4 field sprint.

Even the fat white Jokic is still better than Yang Hansen in terms of speed - everyone who can make a name for themselves in the NBA is all monsters.

So if you really enter the NBA, Yang Hansen's pace and speed will inevitably face great challenges.

Those little defenders will not miss any opportunity to train a big center in the military.

Finally, Yang Hansen made 14 of 25 shots in the joint trial, with a shooting percentage of 56%;

However, in two matches, he made 1 of 3 three-pointers in the first game, and did not make any three-pointers in the second game.

In such an era, he needs to further improve his three-point threat in actual combat in order to get relatively stable playing time.

Of course, a big center with organizational capabilities is still a scarce talent in the NBA after all, which ensures that he will not lose the election;

However, whether he can continue to survive in the NBA ultimately depends on his own adjustment, adaptation and progress.
