Yang Hansen s draft pick continues to soar, US media analyzes the reasons, and compares Zhou Qi in three aspects

NBA Draft Room, one of the famous NBA draft lists, updated its draft strength list! Yang Hansen's pick has soared to 20th place! This is also the first time that Yang Hansen has entered the top 20 pick since he officially announced his participation in the NBA draft. From the initial 90th pick to entering the second round and then entering the first round, Yang Hansen's attention in this draft has steadily increased. Basically, after every draft, his draft prediction ranking will rise by a level. Before participating in the joint trial, Yang Hansen ranked 59th. After the joint trial, his ranking was around 40 in all major rankings. And after ProDay. Yang Hansen's ranking has entered the first round range from the previous second round. Teams such as the Warriors, Lakers, Mavericks, etc. that had no news to Yang Hansen have also been related to him.

In the next time, Yang Hansen will enter the third stage of the NBA: a separate trial and interview stage. At present, at least two-digit teams will conduct a separate trial against Yang Hansen. If the trial training continues to add points, Yang Hansen's draft pick will still have room for improvement.

Judging from the current situation, Yang Hansen is very likely to become the dark horse in this NBA draft, from being completely unoptimistic before, to the draft market soaring. Why is this dramatic reversal? The comprehensive analysis of the US media gave three reasons, which was in sharp contrast to Zhou Qi's situation when he ran for election.

First of all, Yang Hansen's age is real. He is a real 19-year-old boy. Yao Ming was elected the No. 1 NBA scorer at the real age, but then both Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi, age issues have become an important reason for the NBA to neglect them, especially Zhou Qi, who was predicted to enter the lottery zone in the first draft. But in the end, it fell to the second round, and was selected by the Rockets by Yao Ming's favor and face. One of the main reasons is that age is suspected. The NBA attaches great importance to the age of draft players, and the main reason is to consider the potential for training. The reference value of big to small will be greatly reduced. Although Yang Hansen, who is in real age, is very young, his style is steady and mature. This style is exactly the most popular type of inside player in the NBA. The reason why many teams began to pay attention to Yang Hansen was actually that they wanted to pass a second-round draft pick Taobao, hoping to copy Jokic's second-round miracle. But now, a second-round draft pick may not be able to choose Yang Hansen. This change in the draft market may make many teams feel disappointed.

The second is Yang Hansen's basketball quotient, which is different from the talent we often talk about in the past. Yang Hansen gradually attracted attention this time. His biggest selling point is basketball IQ. He is a big player who plays with his brain. In the past, we often said that jumping high is not as good as growing taller, but in the NBA concept has gradually weakened because many black players are too capable of jumping, and with extraordinary wingspan, simple height will no longer have many advantages. In particular, the technical center represented by Jokic once again found the ability to control the game for big players, which was indeed a turning point for big players in the era of small balls. However, this kind of technical center obviously puts higher requirements on the player's basketball IQ, and not anyone with a sufficient size can become a technical center.

NBA selection Why many big men with sufficient sizes will be selected by second round picks? The reason is actually very simple. These players are all physically stronger than their IQs, and there is no risk in choosing a blue-collar franchise-protecting pick in the second round pick.

The reason why Zhou Qi was eventually eliminated in the NBA is actually very simple, that is, he is neither a technical center, so he does not have this awareness. It cannot be used as a blue-collar worker for the meat shield type, and it cannot be used to fight if it doesn’t grow up and your body is too light.

The third reason why Yang Hansen is getting hot is his personality. Many people have said that Yang Hansen is a bit introverted, but judging from his current NBA draft journey, he is actually a typical social giant. Although his language is still a hurdle, his attitude towards communicating with people is very positive, he adapts to the environment quickly, and his integration with his teammates and even competitors is completed in the shortest time. This actually has a lot to do with his dominance in playing basketball. At this point, many NBA teams saw Yao Ming’s shadow in Yang Hansen. Although the two have a lot of different technical styles, their personalities that they like to integrate and can also be integrated are very similar. In sharp contrast to these two people, Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi are undoubtedly the ones who are in sharp contrast. Judging from their teammates’ memories, they communicated too little with their teammates when they played in the NBA! The degree of integration is very insufficient.

Currently, there are two teams that are most likely to use the first round pick to win Yang Hansen. The first is the Hawks, who have been following Yang Hansen for the longest, and their signing is 22nd pick. The Hawks are the team that has been following Yang Hansen the longest and has the most on-site inspections. Without a strong interest, we won't last for so long. The second team is the Nets that fans are most familiar with. The reason is not to be mentioned. If the Nets can sign Cui Yongxi, Yang Hansen is definitely worth signing. Moreover, the Nets have four first-round picks, so it should not be a waste to take out one of them to sign Yang Hansen.
