August 5th News Today's Trail Blazers reporter Mike Richman and Washington Post reporter Ben Golliver jointly hosted a podcast program. During this period, Ben Golliver talked about Yang Hansen's failure to play the Asian Cup.

Regarding his decision to skip the Asian Cup, Ben Golliver said: "I think the team's first priority is to make him adapt to the NBA. After all, he has not played here before, and the draft is a brand new experience for him. He hopes to feel comfortable as soon as possible and contribute as soon as possible. Therefore, both the team and I do not want to miss any opportunities right now."

It is reported that due to the overlap of the Trail Blazers short training camp that Yang Hansen participated in and the FIBA men's Asian Cup schedule from August 5 to 17, after comprehensive evaluation, and considering the long-term development of the athletes themselves and Chinese basketball, the Chinese Basketball Association agreed that Yang Hansen will not participate in the national team training and competitions of the 2025 Men's Basketball Asian Cup, and will do their best to prepare for the new season.
