In an ups and downs NBA preseason matchup, the Portland Trail Blazers finally narrowly defeated the Sacramento Kings with a slight advantage of 124-123 after a fierce battle. The stable performance of the main players such as Sharp and Grant was the cornerstone of the team's victory, but it was the young center Yang Hansen from China who really set off the conversation. In his limited playing time, especially in the third quarter of the game, he played an impressive and efficient performance. In this campaign, Yang Hansen played 17 minutes and contributed 16 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 3 blocks. This game not only demonstrated his ability to quickly adapt to the rhythm of NBA games, but also clearly proved his immediate combat effectiveness through direct confrontation with the opponent's All-Star center and the team's starting center. For the Trail Blazers club and the fans who follow him, the message sent by this game is far more important and far-reaching than the victory or defeat of a preseason game.

The third quarter of the game became the epitome of Yang Hansen's personal performance. He has a strong presence on both ends of the offense and defense. Not only does he effectively protect the basket on the defensive end, block shots and grab key rebounds, but he is also full of firepower on the offensive end. What is amazing is that in just 175 seconds, he used a variety of offensive methods to score consecutive points, scoring 14 points in a single quarter, completely disrupting the Kings' defensive arrangement. His golf quotient and court sense were fully demonstrated during this period. Whether it was eating cakes along the way, second offense or mid-range shooting, he seemed calm and unhurried. This ability to change the situation of the game in a short period of time is especially valuable for a young player who has just entered the NBA league. His efficient performance not only provided the team with strong inside support, but also allowed people to see the huge potential in him, proving that he is not only able to play a blue-collar role, but also has the ability to become a tactical endpoint.

Another focus of this game is the direct dialogue between Yang Hansen and the two star centers. His opponent, Kings All-Star center Sabonis, only scored 8 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in this game under the Trail Blazers' tight defense. He also received 3 fouls in the direct confrontation with Yang Hansen. It can be said that he was restricted quite successfully. At the same time, the Trail Blazers' starting center Klingen scored only 2 points in the game, which was in sharp contrast to Yang Hansen's 16 points. An interesting scene on the sidelines is that when Yang Hansen was shining on the court, the camera captured Klingen sitting on the bench with his chin in his hands and a serious expression. During the timeout, he put his hands in his pockets and looked lonely. This scene silently tells the cruelty of competitive sports and the intensity of competition within the team. With his performance, Yang Hansen has begun to substantially impact the team's main rotation position.

Entering the fourth quarter, Yang Hansen's enthusiasm had not diminished at all. However, he was whistled for an offensive foul during a follow-up alley-oop attempt and was replaced after a total of 5 fouls. Although the game ended early due to a foul problem, when he left the field, the audience gave him warm cheers, which was the highest recognition of his outstanding performance in this game. From the struggle in his debut to the explosion in this game, Yang Hansen showed his most valuable traits, namely his strong learning ability and extremely high basketball understanding. He is able to quickly learn from the game and immediately translate it into action on the field. This innate golf intelligence, coupled with a diligent and enterprising attitude, gives him a solid foundation to gain a foothold in the top league of the NBA.
