4 of 11 three-pointers in 3 games, Yang Hansen can shoot and pass! In 3 games, he scored in double digits, is he more comprehensive than Shin Jing?
5:11pm, 16 July 2025【Basketball】
As the No. 16th pick in the first round of this year's draft, Yang Hansen, a young center from China, naturally received a lot of attention. Even Yang Hansen's draft pick is second only to Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, and is higher than Zhou Qi, the Rockets' Chinese center forward, so it is not unreasonable for the Trail Blazers to be optimistic about Yang Hansen. In the three summer league games, Yang Hansen performed very stably and was quite like a general. Although his physical fitness is a certain weakness, he has a rich scoring method and a view of the passing ability and overall situation of the centers who play with their brains. This is the rarest and most valuable skill for center players in today's league.
The most passable centers in the league are basically Jokic, Sabonis Jr. and Alperen Shinkin of the Rockets. Although Yang Hansen is just a rookie, he has performed very well after three summer league games. The Trail Blazers won the summer league today on July 16th. They beat the New Orleans Pelicans 93:87. Yang Hansen, who continued to play as the starting center, scored a personal summer league highest 15 points. You should know that he only scored 10 points in each of the first two games. In fact, this is not easy, and it also means that Yang Hansen scored all three summer league games in double digits, which is not easy for a young center. After all, he had no NBA experience before.
In addition to scoring, Yang Hansen's rebounding ability is average and needs to be improved, but he is indeed a comprehensive center who can support and pass the ball. After three games, his assists were 5, 3 and 3 respectively, and there were even many eye-catching wonderful stories, reminding people of star centers like Jokic and Shin Kyung. More importantly, Yang Hansen also has a pretty good three-point shooting percentage.
You should know that a center who can protect the rim, score at the basket, pass a good ball, and even make stable three-pointers from the outside are only a handful of in this league. Although Yang Hansen lacks experience, he is obviously a good seedling in the inside position. This is also the main reason why the Trail Blazers are so optimistic about him and dare to take him off with the No. 16 draw.
In today's game against the Pelicans, Trail Blazers' Summer League starter Yang Hansen made 6 of 13 shots in the game, and made 3 of 6 three-pointers, with a shooting percentage of up to 50%. In this game, he scored 15 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, plus two blocks and a steal. After three games, we also saw Yang Hansen hit 4 goals with 11 three-pointers, and his three-point shooting percentage was even as high as 36.4%. Such data is first-class among all centers in the NBA.
You should know that as the Rockets All-Star center, Shin Kyung shot less than 30% of his three-point shooting percentage last season. At least from personal performance, Yang Hansen's comprehensiveness is better than Shen Jing. He can protect the basket, shoot from all positions, and shoot from three-pointers at a high rate. Although Shin Kyung has stronger scoring ability at low posts, more experienced, and better rebounding ability, you should know that Yang Hansen is just a rookie, he is very young, and he is given another three or four years, I believe he will reach Shin Kyung's level.
But I have to pour a basin of cold water, after all, this is just a summer league and the level is not too high. When we really reach the regular season or even the playoffs, we hope to see Yang Hansen use his various skills to achieve a comprehensive performance. However, a center who can pass, shoot, and defend is really a rare genius in this league.
