In the NBA preseason, the Trail Blazers lost to the Jazz 129-132. In this game, Chinese player Yang Hansen played for 15 minutes and 01 seconds. He only scored 3 points, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block on 1 of 2 shots. He also had 3 turnovers and 6 fouls. After being sent off for a foul, Yang Hansen sat on the bench and shed tears. However, the Trail Blazers fans at the scene did not blame him, but cheered him on. Members of the Trail Blazers management also came over to talk to him at this time, encourage him, and asked him not to lose heart and keep working hard.

Afterwards, Yang Hansen said in an interview, "I was quite excited at the time. One was a sixth offender, and the other really did not play well; and a few small pearls did fall out, but it was not a big problem." It is rare that Yang Hansen could remain optimistic during the interview, and his psychological quality was relatively strong. Yang Hansen said that the team's management team Jeter came to comfort him, "You have done a good job, you have worked hard, don't blame yourself for a poor performance in a game." After saying these words, Yang Hansen felt much better, so he was able to be interviewed calmly after the game. He would like to thank today's fans, management, and everyone who cares about him.

To be honest, the preseason games are indeed stronger than the summer league competition, and the referees are more strict than before in terms of catching fouls. In this game, Yang Hansen left the field with 6 fouls twice, 4 fouls once, and 5 fouls once. He averaged 5.3 fouls per game, which is indeed quite a lot. It not only caused a lot of trouble for himself but also for the team. Yang Hansen said in front of the camera that he could not say how to judge the referee. It was indeed his actions that were not standardized and his performance was not good enough. He had a lot to improve. In the next few days, Yang Hansen needs to watch more videos, communicate more with the head coach and teammates, grasp the scale of defense, and constantly correct his minor problems, so that he can do better in the regular season.

As the 16th overall pick in the first round of the NBA this year, Yang Hansen played in the CBA for two seasons before. He won the best star player for two consecutive years, was selected to the best domestic player team twice, and also won the best defensive player once and the block champion once. Last season, Yang Hansen played 45 regular season games in the CBA, averaging 16.6 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.6 blocks in 33.2 minutes per game, with a field goal percentage of 58.6. In 8 games in the playoffs, he averaged 13.4 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 3.1 blocks per game, with a field goal percentage of 66.7%.

After joining the Trail Blazers, Yang Hansen played in 4 summer league games, averaging 10.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.3 blocks per game. He not only has the ability to shoot mid- and long-range shots, but also has the ability to support high positions and the overall situation, and his skills are quite comprehensive. In the 4 games of the preseason, Yang Hansen's data performance has been ups and downs. In 18.3 minutes per game, he can get 8.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.2 blocks. His shooting percentage is 44.4%, the three-point shooting percentage is 40.0%, and the free throw shooting percentage is as high as 100%; but he averages 5.3 fouls per game, which is something you really need to pay attention to.

The NBA regular season opener begins on October 22. The Trail Blazers' first game of the new season will be at home against the Timberwolves on the 23rd. We look forward to Yang Hansen bringing a wonderful performance to the fans in this game. The Timberwolves are also very strong inside. Facing All-Star centers like Randall and Gobert, Yang Hansen and Klingen will be under great pressure. It is also a very good learning opportunity. Keep working hard. In the new season, if Yang Hansen can maintain the average of 18 minutes per game and get 7 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, domestic fans will be satisfied.
