Yang Hansen exploded! The Trail Blazers beat the Warriors, and Lüper also amazed the audience!

On July 12, the NBA Summer League staged a duel, with the Trail Blazers defeating the Warriors 106-73 away, making a good start. Chinese player Yang Hansen started on behalf of the Trail Blazers, scoring 10 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists, becoming the focus of the game. The starting rosters of both sides show that the Warriors sent young players such as Jackson Roh, and the Trail Blazers put Yang Hansen into the starting lineup, which obviously had high hopes for him.

The Trail Blazers climaxed 15-2 at the beginning of the game, Sissoko and Lüper each scored 4 points, and the Warriors did not break the deadlock until Armstrong made both free throws. At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led 34-13, and Love's continuous score became the key. In the second quarter, Lüper continued to expand his advantage through free throws, but the Warriors relied on Jackson Ronaldo to chase points, and the Trail Blazers remained ahead 53-40 in the first half.

Yang Hansen scored 7 points in 2 of 3 shots in the first half and had 2 blocks, but the number of fouls in the second half gradually increased. He played 24 minutes in the whole game, made 3 mistakes and fouls 6 times, but his assists reached 5 times, showing good passing ability. Lüper contributed 23 points and 9 rebounds in the game, becoming the Trail Blazers' scoring leader, while Warriors Armstrong scored only 3 points, and the entire team's offensive efficiency was inefficient.

The Trail Blazers played steadily in the third quarter and kept pressing against the Warriors, and the gap became wider and wider. The last quarter basically entered garbage time, and the Trail Blazers finally won by 33 points. In both starters, the Warriors' Tutsi and the Trail Blazers' Burk Knight did not perform much, but instead the substitute became supporting roles.

Yang Hansen's data list is very comprehensive, but too many fouls may affect subsequent playing time. Lüper's three-pointer failed to open, but he scored through breakthroughs and free throws. The Warriors have obvious loopholes on the defensive end, especially when facing Yang Hansen's inside impact, there are not many ways.

This game exposed the lack of experience of the Warriors Youth Army, while the Trail Blazers showed a stronger integrity. Although Yang Hansen was a little nervous, he made contributions to both offense and defense, especially the several fast breaks and assists that made people shine. The referee strictly controls the confrontation standards of young players, and three of Yang Hansen's six fouls occurred when he was stuck at the basket.

Luper's form declined in the second half, and he scored 18 points in the first half of the game in 23 points, proving his explosive scoring power. The Warriors Jackson Ronaldo scored 17 points in the second half but was difficult to defeat, revealing the lack of depth of the team's lineup. Trail Blazers veteran Love only played 12 minutes, but he always stood up and scored at critical moments.

Yang Hansen's data sheet is full of firsts: the first NBA summer league score, the first block, the first turnover and the foul. In the post-match interview, he repeatedly mentioned the importance of adapting to the rhythm, saying that "the NBA confrontation is more intense than imagined." When the whistle rang at the end of the game, the audience gave Yang Hansen a roar, and some Chinese fans took a photo with his jersey. The Trail Blazers coaching staff said they would continue to observe his performance and may adjust their playing time in the next few summer league games. The Warriors need to solve the problem of inside rotation, and they lost 12 rebounds in this game.

Yang Hansen's data sheet and game video have been sent back to China, and many CBA teams have begun to discuss the potential of this young man. But for him, this is just the first step in the long journey.
