Although he did not sign up for the NBA draft last year, Yang Hansen made full preparations to reach a higher stage this season. After signing with Ricky Paul's agency, Yang Hansen seized the opportunity of Chicago joint trial training. In addition to showing his outstanding static talent in physical testing, Yang Hansen performed well in both 5v5 matches, which also greatly improved his draft market.
A few days ago, former national player Ma Jian talked about Yang Hansen's situation. He said that Yang Hansen is a combination of Duncan and Jokic, has a high football quotient, and has the opportunity to enter the top 20 picks in the first round of this year's NBA draft.
However, many fans think that Ma Jian's remarks are too exaggerated, and media person Mai Suifeng refuted Ma Jian's remarks. He believed that Yang Hansen would definitely be selected in the first round, which was awkward to be selected. The most practical goal is to keep the second round and strive for the first round.
Because usually, rookies with first-round or even lottery prospects basically will not participate in the joint trial match. On the one hand, they have received a single unique training invitation from many teams, and on the other hand, they must maintain a sense of mystery and avoid performing abnormally in such games, thereby affecting their draft prospects. So those who are willing to participate in this confrontation are basically second-round picks or undrafts.
And Yang Hansen's teammates are basically predicted to be selected in the second round, and most of the players from his opponent's team are ranked behind the back in the second round. Yang Hansen was able to receive unanimous praise from the US media in the joint trial because his performance in these two confrontations has enabled him to have a clear advantage in a group of second-round picks or undrafts. This also shows that Yang Hansen basically has a second-round market and the possibility of being selected in the second round is already very high.
Look back and look at Ma Jian's remarks. For Yang Hansen, he does have the prototype of the Duncan + Jokic combination. He has proved his strength in the CBA defensive end. He averaged 10.5 rebounds per game in the regular season, and averaged 2.6 blocks per game, the highest in the league. Although the rebounds have declined in the playoffs, he can still rank 7.3 in the league in 15th. In addition, he is still the first in the league (3.1). If he can enter the NBA to polish, Yang Hansen is indeed expected to follow Duncan.
As for compared with Jokic, Yang Hansen's draft model version is similar to him. They are all-around big men with high-level support. This time, he was able to play a comprehensive data sheet of 11+6+6+1 in the second game of the joint trial match. At least Yang Hansen should have left a very deep impression in the hearts of American scouts. If the next individual trial and interview is held, Yang Hansen can further impress the senior management of the NBA team, and he does have the possibility of being selected at the end of the first round.
