Recently, CBA player Yang Hansen from Qingdao has become popular, not only because of his good performance on the court, but also because of the bigger news: NBA scouts came to the scene to ** Yang Hansen's game, which sparked a discussion among fans about whether Yang Hansen can join the NBA.
The 18-year-old Yang Hansen made his CBA debut and scored 17 points and 134 rebounds and 42 assists and 2The dazzling data of 8 blocks is also the reason why NBA scouts have traveled thousands of miles to China.
You must know that the last time NBA scouts appeared in the CBA game was in 2016, and the object of their investigation was Zhou Qi, and Zhou Qi joined the NBA Rockets team after that.
Appearing in Qingdao is Kevin Connelly, the younger brother of NBA Timberwolves president Tim Connelly, who not only came to inspect on behalf of the Timberwolves, but also represented the intention of the Bulls.
In an interview with **, Kevin commented on Yang Hansen's strengths and weaknesses: "His advantage is that he can have such excellent interior skills under such height conditions (2.18 meters), which is very rare. It can be seen that he has a high basketball IQ, which is also his strength. As for what he needs to improve, I think it's his fitness and his speed. Because of his height, he doesn't retreat very quickly. ”
It must be said that the vision of NBA scouts is very accurate, and Yang Hansen's biggest problem is that the speed is too slow, which is very unsuitable for the current NBA's small-ball era, although some people say that the NBA's Jokic is also slow, but Yang Hansen is more than that.

Yang Hansen's height will remind people of Yao Ming, some fans compared the data of the two at the age of 18, although the difference is not far, but Yao Ming was stronger and faster than Yang Hansen in the CBA arena in terms of confrontation and speed, and Yao Ming's dominance in the CBA was far from being comparable to Yang Hansen.
Since the United Arab Emirates, there are no Chinese players in the NBA, and the NBA has always been optimistic about the Chinese market, they hope that China can have players to join, expand the influence of the NBA in China, which is also one of the important reasons why Kevin Connelly came to China, anyway, this is rare good news for Chinese basketball.
It is still difficult to say whether Yang Hansen will be the next player to enter the NBA, but as Yang Hansen's coach, Qingdao coach Liu Weiwei is a little worried about too much attention from the outside world, and he does not want such a potential player to be disturbed too much by the outside world. "It's been a lot of years since a Chinese player has been scouted by an NBA player, and it's a pressure for the whole team, and I'm worried that he's going to be more or less affected, because he's still a kid after all, and his mentality will change, will he be proud of it?"Will it be relaxed?It's not impossible, so he personally has to grasp it. ”
Indeed, Yang Hansen is only 18 years old, and there is plenty of room for improvement in the future, if he can work towards his NBA goals, maybe he will be "next".
According to Liu Weiwei, the club found an excellent trainer from the United States for Yang Hansen to practice Xi inside center skills, and also specially equipped him with nutritionists and ** divisions, and the monitoring of his physical health and the scientific prevention of injury and disease risks are very perfect. What is the purpose of the Qingdao team?Go without saying.
Well, I hope the fans will "let go" Yang Hansen for the time being, let's wait for the flowers to bloom together.
