Yang Hansen is back, you need to collect the wheat at home when it is ripe!!

In the field of basketball, the training and development strategies of players often determine a country's competitiveness in the international arena. Recently, when the Japanese Basketball Association decided not to let Kawamura Yuki return to China to participate in the Asian Cup, Chinese player Yang Hansen embarked on the journey to prepare for the game. The logic and impact behind this decision are worthy of in-depth discussion. As an NBA two-way contract player, Yuki Kawamura is working hard to adapt to the pace of the NBA and seek improvement in his personal skills. The Japanese Basketball Association clearly prohibited him from returning to China to participate in the Asian Cup, showing his importance to the long-term development of the players. Even when the team's core Yuta Watanabe retired and Hachimura Shirakami was not selected, he still insisted on this decision. This strategy undoubtedly paves the way for Kawamura Yuki's stable development in the NBA. In contrast, Yang Hansen performed well in the NBA's summer league and is considered a hope star for Chinese basketball. However, he was recalled to participate in the Asian Cup after only two months of training in the United States. This arrangement not only interrupted his system training, but also suffered from long-distance flights and reverse jet lag. The schedule of the Asian Cup is compact, but for the Chinese men's basketball team, this may be an opportunity to train the team, but for the development of Yang Hansen's personal skills, whether it is necessary to sacrifice his training time in the NBA is a question worth considering.

The decision of the Chinese Basketball Association may be based on the pursuit of short-term results, hoping to improve the ranking and reputation of the national team through international events such as the Asian Cup. But in the long run, the player's personal growth and technical improvement are the key to improving the overall strength of the national team. The Japanese Basketball Association’s support for Yuki Kawamura shows a strategy of being responsible for the future of players, and the Chinese Basketball Association may learn from it to provide players with a more flexible and favorable growth environment.

In general, the growth of basketball talents requires scientific planning and a long-term perspective. While paying attention to short-term achievements, the Chinese Basketball Association should also pay attention to the long-term development of players to avoid missing the opportunity to train international stars. Only by balancing the relationship between short-term achievements and long-term development can Chinese basketball make greater breakthroughs in the international arena.
