I believe that this scene made countless viewers hold their breath and feel heartache: in the fierce battle under the basket, Sallinger suddenly hugged Yang Hansen's leg, and the two instantly lost their balance and fell to the ground together. The young Yang Hansen was in pain, clutching the injured calf and unable to stand for a long time, his painful expression hit people's hearts through the camera, and the worry and concern on coach Liu Weiwei's face seemed to overflow the screen, making the hearts of all those who care about Chinese basketball tighten.
You must know that Yang Hansen is a treasure-level player who bears the responsibility of the future revival of the Chinese men's basketball team, and any accidental injury may bring immeasurable losses. If the incident is indeed due to the fact that the veteran has lost his mindset due to the anxiety of the game and the loss of the match, and then he has taken actions that could lead to injury, then he will have to pay a heavy price for it.
In this matchup, Yang Hansen single-handedly fought against the 34 points and 12 rebounds of Shen Zijie and Sallinger with a remarkable all-around performance of 22 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, and successfully led the Qingdao team to a narrow victory over the opponent 110-105, achieving a battle that can be sung and cried.
It is worth mentioning that Bob Pearce, a veteran scout of the championship division Heat, sat in the audience, and his appearance was undoubtedly to take a closer look at Yang Hansen's performance. Imagine that in the future, if Yang Hansen knocks on the door of the NBA, joining the Miami Heat may be the ideal destination - after all, the Heat have a tradition of discernment, good at tapping those potential stocks with low draft picks, and even make the undrafted stars shine, and if Yang Hansen can shine there, it will undoubtedly be a good story in his career.
In recent example, Vincent is a player who is like a meteor streaked across the Heat's sky. He was unpopular in the 2018 draft, but he was recruited by the Lakers last year on a three-year, $33 million contract due to his outstanding performance during his time with the Heat. However, just like the flash of bright fireworks, Vincent's performance under the Lakers system was overshadowed, and this season he is like a "** man" on the court, averaging only a negligible 54 points, the feel outside the three-point line is extremely cold, and the shooting rate is as low as a shocking 12%.
Returning to the focus, the influential **No Ceilings in the recent NBA draft industry dissected the characteristics of rising star Yang Hansen in his column. They painted a vivid picture: Yang Hansen is like a strange tree standing in the rookie forest of basketball, with outstanding physical condition, and his passing skills on both offensive and defensive ends are like flowing notes, which is impressive;His basketball IQ is like a silky foot dance, and his technical skills are amazing and varied.
But at the same time, the other side of the scroll reveals his shortcomings—like a jade that has not been polished with iron and stone. Yang Hansen lacks hardness and strength in the confrontation, like a graceful cat rather than a fierce cheetah, preferring to handle the ball delicately rather than showing off a powerful dunk. In addition, on the defensive end, he is relatively slow to move in the face of fast small-ball tactics, which makes him an easy underbelly for opponents to aim at in today's NBA small-ball trend.
These evaluations are accurate and candid, and they aptly outline Yang's current strengths and areas for improvement. While we expect a lot from Hansen Yang and believe that he has a bright future, it is also important to be rational to recognize that the limitations of his dynamic talent may make him face challenges as he adapts to the high-intensity game of the NBA, and be mentally prepared for the twists and turns that he may encounter on his road ahead.
