Yang Hansen s trading chip Coward broke out, averaging 19 points per game and shooting 72% from three-point range, interpreting an inspirational story

On October 26, Yang Hansen traded chips and became the most inspiring story in the NBA. He went from a construction site to the world's highest basketball palace. Who wouldn't be shocked to see it?

The Trail Blazers selected Yang Hansen with the 16th pick in the draft, but in fact their draft pick was not 16 but 11 at the beginning, but the Trail Blazers obviously felt that they should use the 11th pick. The selection of Young was a bit high, so they made a crazy move and exchanged the No. 11 pick for the Grizzlies' No. 16 pick, a first-round pick in 2028 and two second rounds. Then the Grizzlies' No. 16 pick eventually became Yang Hansen.

Since the beginning of the new season, Xiao Yang has averaged 2 points, 1 rebound and 1 block per game. He has performed well as a rookie. But at the beginning, the Grizzlies did not hesitate to exchange four for one. Who did they select with the 11th pick in exchange for the 16th pick and 3 draft picks? Derek Coward. And now he has become the most inspirational genius and the most amazing newcomer since the beginning of the new NBA season.

Facing the Pacers, Coward went crazy and scored 27 points and 6 rebounds with 6 three-pointers. This is not a rookie. This is simply Curry pretending. It must be said that this season he has seized the only opportunity to become the Grizzlies' Bane replacement. He averaged 19 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, shooting 73% from the field and 72% from the field. You read that right, this guy can shoot much more accurate three-pointers than Curry.

At this time, I have to mention that when the Trail Blazers traded him for Yang Hansen, the 11th pick originally belonged to the Trail Blazers. They were willing to switch to the 16th pick to select Xiao Yang, but now it seems that Coward is a bit too strong. You must know that Xiao Yang is only averaging 2 points per game now, but he is already averaging 19 points per game, and he has adapted to the league much faster than expected. The most inspiring thing is that Coward came from a construction site and was also the first player in NBA history to enter the lottery from the NCAA Division III league.

His growth experience is really inspiring. Like James, he did not have a biological father during his growth and was raised entirely by his mother. In addition, when Coward was a sophomore in high school, he once left basketball and went to work on a construction site for 8 hours a day. It was not until his senior year that he quietly rediscovered his love for basketball and joined a small team in the NCAA Division III league.
He stood up from the construction site, stood up from a small team in a low-level league, and was eventually selected with the 11th overall pick. As Yang Hansen's trade partner, Coward averaged 19 points per game and a 72% three-point shooting rate among all rookies this year, which is absolutely unique. Just to ensure that he could be selected, the Grizzlies gave up the No. 16 pick for 4 for 1 and brought him to this team.

And since the beginning of the NBA this year, he has made 8 three-pointers in three games, but only made 11 shots. This kind of top 3D player will be very popular in any team. I believe that a billion-dollar contract is waiting for him. Of course, he is two years older than Yang Hansen, and his potential may not be as good as Young, but it is easier for players like him to gain a foothold in the league, because all teams need top 3D players like this. A terrifyingly talented monster who is only 1.96 meters tall but has a wingspan of nearly 2.2 meters. He may be able to make a lot of money more easily than Yang Hansen. Now that even he can play so well, Yang Hansen should really work hard and continue to work harder.
