The new schedule of the Trail Blazers has been announced. It is unknown whether Yang Hansen can play. God of War gives practical suggestions

The Trail Blazers announced the schedule for the 2025-26 new season. They will face the Timberwolves, Warriors, Clippers, Lakers, Jazz and Nuggets in the first few games of the new season. It is still unknown whether Chinese player Yang Hansen can play in these games.

Yang Hansen participated in the offseason summer league after being selected by the Trail Blazers. Yang Hansen's passing vision, soft feel and outside shooting ability gave media people a new understanding of him. For a player of his height, these skills are rare. Public opinion even labeled him as "China Jokic", suggesting his impressive offensive potential. However, many media people have also given more interpretations based on his technical characteristics and action speed. They are all worried about whether Yang Hansen can adapt to the speed of the NBA when he first entered the league and whether his advantages can continue to play at the basket.

In the summer league, the coaching staff found that when the opponent defends him in a front or puts his arms on his chest, this often disrupts his rhythm. Therefore, the key point that the Trail Blazers management and coaching staff are eager to solve is Yang Hansen's lower limb strength and lack of physical confrontation.

As an older generation player of the Chinese men's basketball team, Liu Yudong gave a suggestion for Yang Hansen's future, that is, he must conduct muscle building training in the future. In his opinion, as an inside player, he must have a certain weight to better protect his own basket, which is also based on Yao Ming's experience.

"Xiaoyao King" Gong Xiaobin suggested that Yang Hansen needs to develop threats on the outside. The development of modern basketball requires every player on the court to adapt to rapid tactical transformation, including the speed of retreat. At present, Yang Hansen's pace of retreating is obviously not enough. If he can pose a threat on the outside, his future path will definitely be wider.

Some media people ranked Yang Hansen's importance at the last place when ranking young pioneers, while the other four were: Avdia, Sharp, Klingen, and Henderson.
