Yang Hansen 8+8+5+3, his teammates stood up and applauded him, but the defensive loopholes were also obvious

On July 18, a focus game in the NBA Summer League, the Trail Blazers vs. the Rockets. Yang Hansen, the Chinese player who was selected with the 16th overall pick in the draft, continued to start, scoring 8 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, helping the Trail Blazers achieve a record of three wins and one loss. A few minutes before the game, when he was replaced early, the Trail Blazers' bench collectively stood up and applauded.

Yang Hansen averaged double scores per game in four summer league games, with a total data of 35 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 6 blocks. After making two minutes of mistakes against the Rockets in the first quarter, he stabilized his performance in the later game and contributed 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block in the second quarter. Although there were not many points in the second half, the plus or minus value +19 ranked second in the team, and the rebounds and assists were the highest in the team.

The physical fitness problem was exposed in the third quarter. The longer the playing time, the lower the efficiency, and I basically didn't participate in the offense in the last quarter. He was knocked away many times when confronting Rockets players. The defensive end made consecutive fouls due to insufficient strength. Most of the 4 mistakes and 6 fouls occurred in the second half.

Head coach Billups has asked him to perform high-level support tasks many times, and the data shows that he has outstanding assisting skills as a center. But when he is 2.13 meters tall, he is easily cut off when facing the opponent's inside line, with a ball breaker, with a shooting percentage of only 43%, and his three-point shooting is pitifully few.

The fans on the scene cheered him on many occasions, and the Trail Blazers management has promised to provide a guarantee contract. The next few months will focus on physical fitness and confrontation, and the coaching team plans to arrange targeted special training. Yang Hansen said after the game that he would seriously summarize the experience and lessons.
