Not long ago, NBA President Adam Silver was interviewed and mentioned Trail Blazers rookie Yang Hansen: "To be honest, I didn't expect to receive so much attention so soon. At first, I thought the attention should be focused on China, but It's much more than that. I saw him in person at the Las Vegas Summer League in July, and it made me excited."

"I understand that fans want to pay attention to what Yang Hansen is doing, and I do the same in Australia. When I was participating in the NBA China game, I was still watching his games in the United States through video broadcasts. I didn’t want to put too much pressure on him because I knew that young players, especially young players from China, tend to receive considerable attention. "

"But I am still excited about his future. Like Yao Ming, he inspired countless young players to work hard to realize their dreams. They let more young people understand that they can also play in the NBA, and girls also have the opportunity to play. Entering the WNBA, this is what it means to set an example. "

Xiao Hua also mentioned that he had reached a major cooperation with the Chinese Basketball Association and mentioned his prospects for young Chinese players: "In fact, we jointly announced a cooperation with the Chinese Basketball Association today. We will jointly create a suitable platform to introduce the best coaches and allow young people to be exposed to more cutting-edge basketball technology. "

"I have been working in the NBA for more than 30 years, and I have seen too many Many talented young people. I hope that through our cooperation, we can help more young Chinese boys and girls and let them believe that they can also enter the NBA and WNBA. Whether it's Young Hansen or other players, we know they will continue to emerge and grow into the next LeBron, the next Steph, the next Yao Ming. "

" And we want to provide them with such a platform and such possibilities. "This is probably what the fans want to see, right? There are more and more young players starting to study abroad to improve their skills. The basketball foundation brought by small basketball and academic basketball is getting wider and wider. It is time for the Chinese men's basketball team to bottom out and rebound.
