On June 27, the Chinese home team was almost going to replace their draft target, which frustrated the Timberwolves management, and the Trail Blazers general manager even mocked him.
In the recent NBA draft, the Minnesota Timberwolves were arguably the worst performing team in the entire draft. The players they tried their best to choose were eventually beaten by other teams, making them a laughing stock. The Trail Blazers chose Yang Hansen at the 16th pick, which not only demonstrated the importance of the player, but also implied that they hoped to block the Timberwolves' plot. From several key details, it can be seen that the Timberwolves had already conducted two-year inspections on Yang Hansen and was highly favored, but in the end, the opportunity was snatched away by the Trail Blazers.
First of all, during the draft, the Timberwolves originally thought they could win with the 17th pick and choose Yang Hansen, but was taken the lead by the Trail Blazers. The whole team's expression when Yang Hansen was selected was shocked and disappointed, because they prefer to choose Joao Belange, which is completely different. Unfortunately, they finally made the wrong decision.
Secondly, the Timberwolves chose Joao Belange, a player similar to existing center Rudy Gobert, which made the outside world question whether their choice was reasonable. If they choose Yang Hansen successfully, it will bring improvements to the team's offensive routines and enhance the diversity of the lineup. In fact, Yang Hansen, who develops offense, passes and assists to his teammates, meets the team's needs, and the Timberwolves' bias caused them to miss out on opportunities.
Finally, during the entire draft, the Timberwolves senior executives showed a state of helplessness and confusion, while the Trail Blazers exuded a confident and gloating attitude. It is not difficult to see from these details that the Timberwolves are indeed the biggest losers in this draft. They missed the excellent opportunity to get Yang Hansen, which also reveals their flaws and mistakes in draft strategy.
