Trail Blazers lost to Lakers Yang Hansen and continued to score 0

The Trail Blazers will face back-to-back games with the Lakers. In the end, the Trail Blazers lost to the Lakers 115-123. Yang Hansen, who had been delegated before, was urgently recalled, but Split did not give Yang Hansen a chance. After the previous five games, the coaching staff realized that the Chinese player was not ready to play in the NBA.

So why did the Trail Blazers recall Yang Hansen?

Currently, the Trail Blazers have adjusted Yang Hansen's position to the team's fourth center. Klingen is firmly in the starting position, and Lowe and Lislin can basically divide the remaining game time, and the coaching staff prefers to use a five-small lineup, which is 1 big and 4 small at most, so the center is not very important to the Trail Blazers. In other words, only when these three people are injured, Yang Hansen will have playing time. From this look, Yang Hansen is basically out of the way in the Trail Blazers.

A reporter from the Trail Blazers team revealed that the team is more interested in the business factors behind Yang Hansen. After all, there is a huge market behind Yang Hansen. The popularity among the local Chinese fan groups is very high, so the team management believes that as long as it does not affect the team's performance, Yang Hansen will generally stay in the team, or be demoted and recalled immediately like this, to ensure the popularity of the team.

The Trail Blazers are also worried that Yang Hansen will be injured in the Development League and will not really go to the Development League to play games. So currently, although Yang Hansen will frequently run around in the Development League and the home team, his position is still the substitute center for the home team.

If Yang Hansen cannot increase the training volume in the future, strengthen physical confrontation and movement speed, he can better adapt to the NBA arena and perform adequately. Then the Trail Blazers must maximize his commercial value during the contract period. Once the guaranteed contract is over, the Trail Blazers will immediately lay off Yang Hansen, and his journey to the NBA will end.
