ESPN analyst: Yang Hansen s organizational ability is at the top level, he can command on the court

Recently, ESPN analyst Tim Legler talked about the situation of the Portland Trail Blazers' inside rookie Yang Hansen selected in this year's NBA Draft, and he also gave Yang Hansen a very high evaluation.

Tim Legler compared Yang Hansen with some other big men and said: There were some first-round picks or second-round picks last year during the summer league, many of which were inside players. I can say that Yang Hansen performed better in this regard than anyone I have seen. He has the confidence to do these things on the court, because he is very confident in his understanding of the game, so he dares to direct and lead on the court, and the coaches also encourage him to make such attempts. I was very impressed by this. His most prominent abilities in the early years of his career will be his organizational skills and passing skills. Yang Hansen has the ability to make his teammates better because he is a player who is willing to share the ball rights. He would want his teammates to actively run and cut in, and he would know you would be in open space before you realize it because he could predict the coverage of the defense in the pick-and-roll and make the right decisions, which would be very beneficial for the team.

Yang Hansen was born on June 26, 2005 and is 20 years old. According to data from the joint trial physical test session before the draft, Yang Hansen's bare feet were 215.9cm, his wingspan was 220.3cm, his standing height was 281.9cm, and his weight was 114.6kg. Yang Hansen played for CBA teams last season. In the CBA regular season last season, Yang Hansen played a total of 45 games, averaging 33.2 minutes per game, with an average of 16.6 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 2.6 blocks, and 3 turnovers and 3.1 fouls. His shooting percentage was 58.6%, a three-point shooting percentage of 33.3%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 67.1%. In the playoffs, Yang Hansen made a total of 8 appearances, averaging 34.5 minutes per game, with averaging 13.4 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.4 steals and 3.1 blocks, and 3.3 turnovers and 3.3 fouls. His shooting percentage was 66.7%, his three-point shooting percentage was 0%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 71.9%.

Yang Hansen showed his versatility in the CBA field last season. In the previous NBA Summer League, he was able to show his characteristics in all aspects. He has rich offensive methods and comprehensive scoring abilities. He also performed very well in passing and organization. He is a player with excellent ball business and game reading skills. In addition, Yang Hansen also has some characteristics of protecting the basket and rebounding on the defensive end. I don’t know if Yang Hansen can play his characteristics in these aspects in the new season and play a decisive role.
