Departure soon?China will now have an NBA player, surpassing Zhou Qi and a dashing and handsome Yang on the line.
For the Chinese dream of the NBA, Yang Hansen is the best candidate.
The NBA has always been eager to break new ground in the Chinese market, and Chinese fans have been waiting for a homegrown player who can shine in the NBA. Recently, according to Yang Yi, scouts from three NBA clubs are keeping a close eye on the CBA league to find a Chinese player with enough strength and potential to get a head start in this summer's draft. As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the Chinese basketball world. Who can be the realizer of the NBA's Chinese dream?
Among the many CBA players, there is one name that is considered the most promising, and that is Yang Hansen, the center of the Qingdao men's basketball team. Yang Hansen, born on June 26, 2005, is 216cm tall and weighs 116kg, which is currently the most NBA body in the CBA league. His bone test results show that his ideal height growth is 224cm, and if he can maintain good nutrition, rest and training under the guidance of science, he is expected to reach this peak growth value in 2026. At that point, he will be an unbeatable basketball giant.
Not only does Yang have amazing physical condition, but his basketball skills and mind are also very good. Since his teenage years, he has shown his talent in a variety of tournaments, both domestically and in Asia, where he has been able to lead his team to victory with his blocks, rebounds and scoring. In his debut season in the CBA, he didn't disappoint either, averaging 117 points, 89 rebounds and 2With 4 blocks, he won the title of the best rookie and became the top of the three hopeful new stars in the league.
Yang Hansen's jersey number is 15, which is his tribute to Zhou Qi and his expectations for himself. Zhou Qi was the most recent Chinese player to enter the NBA, having been drafted by the Rockets in the 2016 draft, but his NBA performance was not ideal and he eventually returned to the CBA in 2019. Yang hopes to surpass Zhou Qi and become a more successful NBA player. He has many commendable qualities, such as his blocking ability, which is considered to have surpassed Zhou Qi and Yi Jianlian in the same period;The speed of his footsteps is considered to have surpassed that of Yao Ming in the same period;His soft touch and accuracy of finishing under the basket are considered to resemble O'Neal in the NBAHis center's vision and global acumen, aka ball quotient, are considered to be on par with the NBA's baseline. These are the hard currencies he knocked on the door of the NBA.
Of course, Yang is not perfect, and he still has a lot to improve. After all, he's just a 19-year-old, he hasn't gone through the brutal test of the NBA, he hasn't met a real tough opponent yet. His ability to protect the basket, the hardness of the fight, the finishing ability, and the level of mid-range shooting all have huge room for improvement. He also lacks a unique skill of his own, such as Yao Ming's unsolved hook, Yi Jianlian's flying split, or Zhou Qi's three-point shooter. He also needs to fully regulate his body growth to avoid stopping growth prematurely, or gaining weight excessively, which affects his flexibility and explosiveness.
Yang Hansen is a player with the dual attributes of perfection and imperfection, his physical condition and age conditions give him an unlimited development prospect, but his uncertainty and the limitations of the CBA also give him a huge challenge. Now, if the door to the NBA is really open for him, then he and his team should not hesitate to seize this opportunity to participate in a tryout and show their quality and potential. Because, compared with other CBA players, such as Zhang Zhenlin, Cui Yongxi, Qi Lin, and even Lin Wei, he is more qualified and capable to become the realizer of the NBA's Chinese dream!
