Gong Xiaobin advised Yang Hansen to make four major requirements: Be more competitive, improve speed + develop skills, etc.

On August 12, 55-year-old Chinese Basketball Hall of Fame celebrity Gong Xiaobin sent a message to the 20-year-old Hope Star. He affirmed Yang Hansen's current skills and praised his intelligence, but also pointed out that Yang Hansen faced a small inside challenge in the CBA, so he gave five major suggestions: First, it is necessary to increase the range of activities at the basket without limiting the basket, second, it is necessary to develop more skills, third, it is necessary to be more competitive and set higher goals, and fourth, it is necessary to improve the movement rate and offense and defense conversion speed.

Gong Xiaobin is a famous Chinese Basketball Hall of Fame. He is one of the members of the golden generation of Chinese men's basketball. He has achieved brilliant achievements in international arenas and clubs, and has coaching experience after retirement.

Now Gong Xiaobin is a guest on a domestic platform program. When talking about Yang Hansen, who is about to officially compete in the NBA, he put forward suggestions and requirements to the 20-year-old Chinese Hope Star. As the No. 16 pick in the first round, Yang Hansen performed well in the summer league. He is likely to be one of the inside potential stocks that the Trail Blazers focus on training in the new season, and he and Klingen will be the team's future.

Regarding Yang Hansen's current technical ability, Gong Xiaobin said: "Yang Hansen's back-up skills, including the basket feeling, have a very good looks from the older generation of players."

However, Yang Hansen's transition from the CBA to the NBA will inevitably face greater challenges. Gong Xiaobin said: "Our domestic inside and CBA leagues have not had a big impact on Yang Hansen. I think Yang Hansen's first goal to increase his range of activities when he goes to the NBA. You can't just go to the basket. Yang Hansen has basically no advantage when he goes to the NBA, so you need to develop more skills."

Gong Xiaobin also pointed out Yang Hansen's personality traits: "This child is smarter in playing basketball, but his personality is a bit Buddhist. I think he should be more aggressive and competitive, and strive to set his goals higher. The biggest problem has been mentioned before, to improve his movement speed, and the other is to improve his offensive and defensive conversion speed, because the pace of the NBA is too fast, and he must adapt to the speed and intensity of the international arena."

Considering that the Trail Blazers are in the reconstruction stage, Yang Hansen is expected to be trained in the new season. Whether he can truly gain a foothold and adapt to the intensity and rhythm of the NBA game can only be seen.
