Yang Hansen’s mother posted an article, implying that her son’s weight gain and lack of status were due to external factors.

Yang Hansen did not get a chance to play in the Blazers' upset victory over the desperate situation, and was subsequently transferred to the Development League by the team. Fortunately, this was just a routine exercise and he would still be recalled against the Lakers.

But Yang Hansen's current state seems to be somewhat different from that of the Trail Blazers, especially with Lowe's comeback and Reese's wonderful performance. Yang Hansen has gone from being the No. 16 rookie with high hopes to the team's fourth center choice, and it is basically difficult to get playing time. Although coach Split has always said that Yang Hansen is a great project and believes that he has a better future, the playing time given to Yang Hansen is indeed pitiful. Yang Hansen has also been at the forefront of public opinion because he is not active enough and has gained weight. He often goes out to eat.

From being selected by the Trail Blazers with the 16th overall pick to the surprise of everyone, to his wonderful performance in the summer league, many people called Yang Hansen the Chinese version of Jokic, and Yang Hansen even developed angular abdominal muscles. In order to allow him to rest and recover better, even the Asian Cup was made an exception and he was not allowed to participate. Later, Yang Hansen took his girlfriend to play together, and even went to the United States to play games together. Unexpectedly, Yang Hansen gained serious weight during this period, and was photographed eating hot pot and barbecue in restaurants many times.

Many fans even called for Yang Hansen to send his girlfriend back to China so that he could exercise well and gain a foothold in the NBA. Unexpectedly, his girlfriend directly attacked the fans, which only aggravated the public opinion. Yang Hansen's mother couldn't bear to see her son being exposed to rumors from the outside world. She posted on social media and asked, "What caused Hansen to gain weight and decline in condition?" Only mother knows. This sentence seems to imply that Yang Hansen's weight gain and malaise are caused by other factors. According to common sense, Yang Hansen has injury problems, or the team requires him to gain weight and has girlfriend issues.

I don’t know if it was for fear of stirring up public opinion again. Yang Hansen’s mother deleted the post shortly after posting it, but it was still retained by fans. It is said that Yang Hansen’s parents are preparing to go to the United States to take care of their son. I believe that their arrival will allow Yang Hansen to better focus on the court.
